Once an outbreak has been confirmed, epidemiological surveillance must be stepped up. The goals of the surveillance system are: to identify new epidemic foci early; to monitor the evolution of the outbreak; to arrange for appropriate patient care; to evaluate response activities.
The Western Pacific Region, being the most diverse region in the World, is beset by unique public health challenges and is considered a hotspot for outbreaks and emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases, such as SARS, MERS, avian influenza, Zika and dengue. Currently there are 3 global emergenci
