Emerging and Re-emerging Infectious Diseases
Emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases refer to infections that appear for the first time or those that return after a period of decline. Factors such as climate change, globalization, deforestation, and microbial evolution contribute to the rise of these health threats. Effective public health surveillance and rapid response systems help detect outbreaks sooner and limit their impact. These diseases pose significant challenges due to their unpredictability and potential for widespread transmission. Strengthening laboratory capacity, enhancing global reporting networks, and advancing vaccine research are critical for managing such threats. Collaborative international efforts are essential to reduce the risk of future pandemics.
