Abstract

On trouve, dans ce document, une revue de quelques unes des grandes épidémles survenues au cours de 5000 dernières années de l'histoire de l'Homme. Douze leçons en sont tirées dans le contexte de la surveillance épidémiologique. Les douze impératifs correspondants proposés dans ce document pourraient servir d'orientation pour établir un système de surveillance plus adéquat et mieux intégré au XXI e siècle. Cela pourra se faire en: poursuivant le développement et l'amélioration de la surveillance; son maintien de façon permanente; sa systématisation; sa représentativité; l'inclusion d'indicateurs de risques et d'interventions dans la base de données; une analyse plus efficace des données; la promotion de la recherche étiologique; l'amélioration de la capacité de prévision; l'établissement de liens avec le développement de moyens d'intervention; l'évaluation des interventions; l'établissement de meilleurs outils d'information; la diffusion sans crainte de préjudice.
