identification of outbreaks

What are the Challenges in Identifying Outbreaks?

Several challenges can impede the identification of outbreaks:
1. Delayed Reporting: Late reporting of cases can delay the detection and response to an outbreak.
2. Insufficient Data: Incomplete or inaccurate data can make it difficult to identify and investigate outbreaks.
3. Resource Limitations: Limited resources in terms of personnel, funding, and technology can hinder outbreak identification and response.
4. Underreporting: Some cases may not be reported due to lack of access to healthcare or fear of stigma.
