A combination of surveillance systems, diagnostic tools, and public health strategies are employed to achieve timely detection. These include:
Surveillance Systems: Monitoring data from hospitals, laboratories, and other healthcare facilities to identify unusual patterns or clusters of illness. Diagnostic Tools: Utilizing advanced molecular techniques such as PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) and rapid antigen tests for quick and accurate diagnosis. Public Health Strategies: Implementing measures such as contact tracing, quarantine, and vaccination campaigns.
