Despite its importance, the NNDSS faces several challenges, including:
Underreporting: Not all cases of notifiable diseases are reported, leading to incomplete data. Data Quality: Variability in data collection methods can affect the accuracy and reliability of the data. Timeliness: Delays in reporting can hinder the rapid response to outbreaks. Privacy Concerns: Balancing the need for data transparency with patient confidentiality is a constant challenge.
