“The Africa Region has had to deal with outbreaks of cholera, meningococcal meningitis, typhoid and influenza among other diseases in the last decade, and lately Ebola virus disease. It is known that countries with weak surveillance systems or without community-based surveillance systems are not able to promptly detect and respond in a timely fashion to public health threats or events. There is a need then to strengthen disease surveillance at all levels and especially at the community level.” – WHO Regional Office for Africa

For Whom: Public Health Surveillance Officers and Assistants at all levels – individual, community, local government, state, national, regional and international.
