GOARN provides an operational platform for international teams on the ground in China, Hong Kong, Singapore and Viet Nam. Though the network, which now has over 120 partners throughout the world, currently identifies and responds to more than 50 outbreaks in developing comltries each year, the SARS outbreak was the first time that GOARN identified and responded to an outbreak that was rapidly spreading internationally. Field teams composed of staff from GOARN partners were quickly mobilized to assist affected countries in enhancing surveillance and containment measures, which included isolating cases, implementing strict infection control measures, identifying and following-up with contacts, and making recommendations to travelers to prevent international spread. |
