Current efforts lay great emphasis on technologies for improving early detection, with inadequate attention to governance and the role of awareness-both in the community and among health professionals-of the potential risk posed by infectious diseases, especially in the endemic settings of low-to mid-income countries. In a low-income setting, the most important condition at the early stages of outbreak detection (stages 1-3: recognition, reporting, and assessment) was technical capacity followed and accompanied by governance and policy. ./cache/cord-355425-0te4tqck.txt ./txt/cord-355425-0te4tqck.txt
