The next Section covers Public Health Tools During Emergencies (Chapters 9-11) Epidemiological Studies, Surveillance and Monitoring and Rapid Needs Assessment. I will attached chapter 9-11
For this weeks discussion, I would like for you to address the following:
1) Does the cost of surveillance justify the necessity of its implementation or is it waste of finances and resources?
2) What are some of the pros and cons of syndromic surveillance?
3) Write about the use of Rapid Needs Assessment (RNA) during the Preparedness, Response and Mitigation phases. Is conducting an RNA in one phase more important or useful than conduct it in other phases? Why or why not?
