The IHR 2005 require countries to develop core capacities in public health, including surveillance systems and epidemiology services, that can analyse and act on surveillance information to detect and respond to diseases where and when they occur so that their potential to spread internationally is decreased. Surveillance and response teams detect early stage public health threats while control programmes gather disease (or condition) specific information to plan activities. These networks depend on cooperation of governments, public health workers and scientists to report cases, provide specimens and share information so that specific diseases can be controlled globally.	./cache/cord-017463-repm1vw9.txt	./txt/cord-017463-repm1vw9.txt
