RESUMEN
Las enfermedades transmisibles en Colombia han demostrado históricamente diferentes comportamientos 1 , debido a inequidades sociales 2,3 y condiciones precarias de saneamiento básico, entre otros factores que han dado lugar a altas tasas de morbimortalidad poblacional 4-7. Colombia adoptó el Plan Decenal de Salud Pública 2012- 2021 (PDSP), mediante resolución número 1841 (2013) del Ministerio de Salud, apostando políticamente por la equidad en salud, entendida como: « ausencia de diferencias en salud entre grupos sociales consideradas innecesarias, evitables e injustas ¼ 8 . Esto implica que la equidad sanitaria se logra cuando todos alcanzan su potencial de salud independientemente de sus condiciones culturales y socioeconómicas. El PDSP es producto del Plan Nacional de Desarrollo 2010-2014, y busca reducir la inequidad en salud, planteando 3 objetivos para lograrlo, avanzar hacia la garantía del goce efectivo del derecho a la salud, mejorar las condiciones de vida que modifican la situación de salud y disminuyen la carga de enfermedad existente y no tolerar la mortalidad, la morbilidad y las discapacidades evitables 9 , para alcanzar mayor equidad en salud y desarrollo humano sostenible, construir capital humano y disminuir vulnerabilidades sociales, incorporando políticas nacionales e internacionales dirigidas a grupos poblacionales como niños, niñas, adolescentes, jóvenes y personas mayores, mujeres víctimas de maltrato y otras clases de violencia de género, víctimas del conflicto, personas con discapacidad y grupos étnicos. Cuenta con 8 dimensiones prioritarias, que incluyen la vida saludable y enfermedades transmisibles (VSET), entre otras, cada una a su vez con objetivos, estrategias, metas e indicadores
ABSTRACT
Communicable diseases in Colombia have historically shown different behaviours 1 , due to social inequities 2,3 and precarious basic sanitation conditions, among other factors that have led to high morbidity and mortality rates in the population 4-7. Colombia adopted the Ten-Year Public Health Plan 2012-2021 (PDSP), through resolution number 1841 (2013) of the Ministry of Health, making a political commitment to health equity, understood as: "the absence of differences in health between social groups considered unnecessary, avoidable and unfair "8 . This implies that health equity is achieved when everyone reaches their health potential regardless of their cultural and socio-economic conditions. The PDSP is a product of the National Development Plan 2010-2014, and seeks to reduce inequity in health, setting out 3 objectives to achieve this: to move towards guaranteeing the effective enjoyment of the right to health, to improve living conditions that modify the health situation and reduce the existing burden of disease, and not to tolerate avoidable mortality, morbidity and disability 9 , to achieve greater equity in health and sustainable human development, build human capital and reduce social vulnerabilities, incorporating national and international policies aimed at population groups such as children, adolescents, youth and the elderly, women victims of abuse and other kinds of gender-based violence, victims of conflict, people with disabilities and ethnic groups. It has 8 priority dimensions, including healthy living and communicable diseases (STDs), among others, each in turn with objectives, strategies, targets and indicators.
