Several methods can be employed for data backup in epidemiology:
1. Full Backups: A complete copy of all data. This is the most comprehensive method but also the most time-consuming and storage-intensive. 2. Incremental Backups: Only data that has changed since the last backup is saved. This method is faster and requires less storage. 3. Differential Backups: Similar to incremental backups but saves data changed since the last full backup. This provides a middle ground between full and incremental backups.
Each method has its advantages and should be selected based on specific needs and resources.
