Emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases cause a risk both to populations in which these diseases occur and to travellers. This chapter reviews the mechanisms of clinical, laboratory, and public health outbreak preparedness and response, global health security and the International Health Regulations (2005). New efforts to improve multi-disciplinary research responses during epidemics to advance knowledge into effective interventions are described, as well as challenges to effective outbreak detection and response and actions needed.
