epidemic control
Stopping disease spread
Epidemic control refers to organized efforts to limit the spread of infectious disease within a population.
This includes measures like quarantine, contact tracing, vaccination campaigns, and public health advisories.
The term applies both to immediate outbreak response and longer-term prevention strategies: Epidemic control depends on early detection and rapid intervention.
