Public Health England (PHE) produce a monthly report that provides detailed updates on known HCID events around the world. HCID’s are characterised by acute infectious illness, ability to spread person-to-person, high case-fatality rate, difficulty in rapid recognition and detection, lack of effective treatments and the need for coordination at the national level to appropriately respond. The purpose of this report is simply to raise awareness.
