What Are the Challenges in Epidemiological Response?
Several challenges can hinder effective response, including:
- Data Quality: Inaccurate or incomplete data can lead to misinformed decisions. - Resource Limitations: Limited funding, personnel, and medical supplies can constrain response efforts. - Communication Barriers: Poor communication can lead to misinformation and panic, complicating control measures. - Political and Social Factors: Political resistance and social stigma can impede the implementation of control measures.
