INTRODUCTION
Infectious diseases are emerging at rapid rate and are disrupting healthcare system in an
adverse manner. It is essential to implement effective techniques such as public surveillance,
populations screening and immunization practices in order to have successful treatment as well
as detection of these infectious diseases (Cowling and Aiello, 2020). It helps in undertaking
information and data as these diseases are becoming increasingly complicated and challenging. It
is essential for public health system to effectively reinforce practices according to the changing
health environment in order to overcome the increasing complexity of emerging infectious
diseases. Present report has been conducted on the topic of for which technical knowledge along
with its related policy implications is being covered.
MAIN BODY
Chosen topic infectious diseases and health protection [outbreaks], public health
surveillance, populations screening, immunisation is a health protection issues. Infectious
diseases like Malaria, HIV, corona virus etc spread at rapid rate. In addition to this it has been
underlined that the health protection landscape is also changing for the more issues associated to
infectious diseases in relation to global health (Huff and Singh, 2020). This insignificantly
receiving world leaders as well as policymakers attention, as infectious diseases is a health
protection issue which is having direct impact upon emergence of infections bacterial resistance
and upon other factors. In addition to this it has been underlined that there is regular need for

information as the new organisms emerge on continuous manner and existing ones develop
resistance to current vaccines and drugs. It is essential to obtain effective information of the
infectious diseases as it affects individuals in overall manner. Infectious diseases such as the
outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome that was firstly recognised in the year 2003 have
huge impact upon individual a infectious diseases is spreading rapid rate, that create challenges
in terms of administrative as well as distributing specific vaccine. It has been identified that there
is no doubt that other diseases will continuously emerge. It is essential for healthcare
professionals to effectively deal with handling of these diseases in effective manner. Furthermore
it has been underlined that infectious disease is a health protection issue, as negligence of this
will lead to words severe consequences. It is essential to determine these diseases in order to
effectively implement public health surveillance population screening and immunisation
programmes. In addition to this it has been evaluated that public screening plays crucial role, as
it helps in contributing for the better management as well as prevention of infectious diseases.
Furthermore, it has been underlined that the selected topic infectious diseases and health
protection [outbreaks], public health surveillance, populations screening, immunisation are
effective capabilities for efficient health system. It is essential to effectively maintain and
integrate proper screening in order to systematically monitor infectious diseases as well as other
conditions. It helps in conducting proper clinical observation and laboratory confirmation. In
addition to this it has been stated that infected diseases screening is basically the first link in the
response to emerging infections (Huff and Singh, 2020). Furthermore public health surveillance
and population screening helps in systematic as well as regular analysis collection and
interpretation of data for a given population, in order to detect chances on pattern of diseases.
With the help of this information can be used in a right time and can further place in order to
undertake effective decision making. In addition to this according to the analysis it has been
evaluated that public health also play most important and essential role in public health toolkit
and it effectively assures robust evidence base for public health decision-making. In addition to
this it also determine its commitment to regularly assess and monitor the need for public health
action. With the help of population screening public health, public population screening and
public health surveillance direction can be undertaken to which monitoring can be done in
effective manner (Eyal, Lipsitch and Smith, 2020).
