Today is our second
day in Kubang Pasu, and we will be learning about Communicable Disease Control.
After briefing, I found out that the way of notifying a certain disease is
similar to what had been taught to us yesterday regarding dengue(e-notification).
However, there is another thing known as e-wabak(outbreak) in which the
notifying part has been make more effective when an outbreak of certain
diseases have been confirmed. We also learned that there are currently a few
diseases which required to be notified within 24 hours, such as dengue,
jaundice, food poisoning and so on. Failure to do so, the physician will be
charged a compound maximum up to RM500. We are also been taught regarding
outbreak investigation with food poisoning as an example, which appears to be
more understandable compared to reference books.
