Epidemiological monitoring

ZOE project promotes the inter-sectorial collaboration in the control of malaria & dirofilariasis, including closer collaboration between human doctors and the veterinary field. In this respect the project presents for the human medicine a protocol on epidemiological monitoring and disease control in public health practice. The OBJECTIVES of the protocol are:
1. To improve the level of knowledge about malaria (the epidemiological, clinical and preventive issues) among medical specialists and students through the collaboration between human and veterinary medicine.
2. To contribute to the preservation of the status of the country: territory where "malaria is eradicated" (to avoid the reestablishment of malaria).
