Although no single approach answers all of the challenges confronting our public health system, the book fulfills many of the requirements by providing: - Point-of-care decision support for physicians, other health care workers, and first responders when confronted with suspected public health diseases and conditions; - A common format and lexicon for all persons and entities involved in public health decisions and for ease of real-time data collection; and - A means for mass education of health care professionals and first responders about specific diseases and conditions.
