Abstract

Infectious disease control and prevention remain critical public health challenges, particularly in light of emerging pathogens and global health threats. This paper examines innovative strategies and interventions aimed at controlling the spread of infectious diseases and mitigating their impact on human health. Key topics include surveillance and early detection methods, vaccination programs, antimicrobial stewardship, and infection control measures in healthcare settings. Additionally, the paper explores the role of interdisciplinary collaboration, data analytics, and community engagement in enhancing disease surveillance and response efforts. By synthesizing lessons learned from past outbreaks and ongoing research, this paper aims to inform evidence-based approaches to infectious disease control and prevention in the face of evolving threats.
