Abstract

The detection and response to infectious disease outbreaks remain a crucial global public health challenge because these outbreaks produce substantial difficulties for authorities. The study summarizes recent research about outbreak management techniques through discussions of efficient surveillance programs and public health control measures along with community participation. Study results show that outbreak management suffers substantial setbacks due to restricted funding along with challenges in data exchange and compliance from the public population, mostly affecting developing nations. The article emphasizes three innovative technological tools: artificial intelligence, machine learning, and genomic surveillance to enhance detection accuracy and response efficiency. Recent outbreaks of COVID-19 and Zika virus serve as examples, which demonstrate successful approaches together with the shortcomings found during failed response measures. The review calls for international support to enable prompt information exchange, which helps coordinate responses. The recommendations call for better healthcare infrastructure development alongside community health program activism and technological use for outbreak prevention enhancement. Public health authorities will protect worldwide population health more effectively through addressing their current challenges while putting strategic recommendations into practice.
