You don’t hear about most disease outbreaks (and why that’s good) | Marisa Eisenberg explains

Infectious disease threats are emerging globally every day, but most never make headlines. University of Michigan School of Public Health researcher Marisa Eisenberg reveals the invisible surveillance systems working 24/7 to protect your community from disease outbreaks.

Eisenberg's team develops cutting-edge surveillance systems that act as an early warning network, giving health officials and doctors crucial time to intervene before diseases reach your doorstep. These systems work around the clock to keep your community safe, from your local farmers market to your child’s daycare.

The most successful public health work is the kind you never hear about—because the threat was stopped before it could affect your daily life. Without this essential surveillance, even common diseases could rapidly overwhelm healthcare systems and communities.
