(a) and (b): Union Ministry of Health & Family Welfare has implemented Integrated Disease Surveillance Programme (IDSP) which is mandated with surveillance & response to 33 plus outbreak prone communicable diseases. The programme is implemented in all 36 States/UTs. Under the programme, every State has been provided with designated laboratories like District Public Health Laboratories (DPHLs), State Referral Laboratories (SRLs) to support disease surveillance and outbreak investigation. IDSP also performs media scanning & verification of print and electronic media for disease outbreak related news to strengthen the event-based surveillance. More recently, the previous paper based weekly reporting has been shifted to Integrated Health Information Platform (IHIP) that is a real time, case based reporting system. Integrated Health Information Platform (IHIP) by integrating module of IDSP, uses advanced data modelling and data analytical tools, contains real-time data reporting, accessible at all levels, thus providing a single operating picture with geospatial information of outbreak prone diseases.

(c) and (d): State/UTs-wise details outbreak of various diseases reported across the country (including Uttar Pradesh) during the last year (till 10 th December, 2023) is at Annexure .
