Integrated Disease Surveillance Programme (IDSP)

The Integrated Disease Surveillance Programme (IDSP) is a health monitoring system used by countries to track and manage diseases. It collects data from laboratories, hospitals, and health workers to identify disease outbreaks early. By analyzing this information, health authorities can respond quickly to contain and prevent the spread of illnesses such as flu, dengue, or COVID-19. The goal is to improve public health safety through timely detection, proper intervention, and effective disease control measures, ensuring a healthier population.
