A. When the Global Outbreak Alert and Response team at WHO verifies an outbreak of infectious disease, Network partners help to provide staff and supplies to work on epidemiological investigation, confirmation of diagnosis and case detection, handling of dangerous pathogens, management of patient care, containment, and provision of logistics support. Experienced and well equipped teams from WHO are prepared to leave within 24 hours for the site of an outbreak.
