Highlights:
1. Syndromic disease surveillance is NOT a replacement of regular surveillance systems
2. It is an active reporting system to enhance surveillance and ensure quick flow of information in periods of increased health risks during or shortly after emergencies
3. Decisions of when and where to implement syndromic disease surveillance should be taken by DHO / DPHO in consultation with the Rapid Response Team and the Director of EDCD
4. In post-emergencies a rapid health assessment needs to be implemented not later than 24 hours after a public health emergency occurs and reported on a separate format.
