It was created using the steps to conduct an epidemiological field investigation, created by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (USA). After an introduction into the fictional country and its geographical circumstances, a fictional outbreak in the year 2019 is described.
To confirm the outbreak, the preparations to investigate are introduced and the confirmation of the diagnosis explained. Subsequently, the existence of the outbreaks is determined. Furthermore, the count cases are identified, and the collected data is tabulated and oriented. The data is then compared and reconciled with laboratory and environmental findings. On this basis hypotheses are developed.
The following chapter deals with the topic of the outbreak management. Firstly, it is discussed how further transmissions can be prevented. Secondly, the management of the already sick persons is described. Lastly, the response is monitored. In the last chapter the findings are communicated.
