Resumo: The technological development experienced in the contemporary world are transforming society and relations between State and people. The mobility of human being has reached levels never before imagined and a person can move from one side of the world to the other side in less than 24 hours. This mobility also includes goods and services, giving the keynote of the globalized world of the XXI Century. In this context, the risks of diseases and others health problems are intensely amplified. Nowadays, an epidemic that begins in China can arrive in Brazil the following day. Brazil recognizes health as a universal right and also consider it a State's obligation. Therefore, the State of Brazil is obligated to organize itself to eliminate or control health risks. Today, the organization of the Brazilian State regarding the surveillance of risks of diseases and other health problems is fragmented and includes sanitary surveillance (focused on goods, products and services), epidemiological surveillance (diseases and investigations of other risks) and environmental surveillance in health (the environment in general, including the workplace). This fragmentation causes problems for the management and consolidation of strategic information for health protection. Brazil has the need to think about an other model of organization that put together all "kinds" of surveillances within a single coordinated system, called the National System of Health Surveillance, which would be able to coordinate the various specialties of health surveillance that exists in the country in order to provide a effective system of information and health surveillance, able to face emergency situations of public health.

As evoluções tecnológicas vividas no mundo contemporâneo vêm transformando a sociedade e as relações entre os Estados e as pessoas. A mobilidade do ser humano atingiu níveis nunca antes imaginados, sendo possível chegar de um lado ao outro do mundo em menos de 24 horas. Esta mobilidade também inclui bens e serviços, dando a tônica do mundo globalizado do Século XXI. Neste contexto, os riscos de doenças e outros agravos à saúde se amplificaram intensamente. Hoje, uma epidemia que se inicia na China pode chegar ao Brasil no dia seguinte. O Brasil reconhece a saúde como direito de todos e dever do Estado (CF, art. 196), devendo este organizar-se para a eliminação ou controle dos riscos à saúde que existirem em nossa sociedade. Atualmente, a organização do Estado brasileiro no que se refere à vigilância dos riscos de doenças e outros agravos à saúde é fragmentada, havendo a vigilância sanitária (focada em bens, produtos e serviços), a vigilância epidemiológica (doenças transmissíveis e investigações de outros riscos) e a vigilância ambiental em saúde (meio ambiente em geral, inclusive o do trabalho). Esta fragmentação provoca problemas de gestão e de consolidação de informações estratégicas para a defesa da saúde. Neste sentido, deve-se pensar na organização das vigilâncias dentro de um sistema único e coordenado, denominado Sistema Nacional de Vigilância em Saúde, que articule as diferentes especialidades de vigilância em saúde hoje existentes no Brasil e possibilite um sistema de informações e ações de vigilância em saúde eficaz e resolutivo, capaz de enfrentar a contento situações emergenciais de saúde pública.
