| 英文摘要 |
"Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), a global health alert beginning in March 2003, also affected Taiwan and caused public panic and unprecedentedly crippled the economy. In December of the same year, avian influenza had spread across Korea, Japan and Vietnam. Since then, countries around the world reported several high/low pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI/LPAI) outbreaks. Based on the concept of disease clusters with similar clinical symptoms, Centers for Disease Control implemented the Symptom Surveillance System in 2003, in order to detect the emergence or unusual trends of infectious diseases, and take control measures promptly. Health authorities report to the system while individuals of a cluster develop similar symptoms that follow the reporting criteria. In addition, the system boosted the capacity for monitoring imported diseases and report symptomatic cases by quarantine stations at ports of entry." |
