Ebola, Zika, and other viral infections remain high-priority threats in Infectious Diseases, demanding attention to Epidemiology & Public Health, Disease Prevention & Control, and Vaccines and Immunization. This session examines the virology, transmission mechanisms, and clinical manifestations of emerging viral pathogens. Participants will explore rapid diagnostic tools, outbreak surveillance techniques, and strategies to strengthen community-level response systems. Real-world case studies illustrate successful containment and mitigation efforts, emphasizing lessons for global preparedness.
The session also highlights challenges posed by Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) in co-infections during viral outbreaks and explores the integration of vaccination programs to reduce disease burden. Attendees will gain insights into designing evidence-based interventions, improving patient outcomes, and coordinating multi-level public health strategies that enhance preparedness and resilience against viral epidemics.
