Assessment of the acute encephalitis surveillance system in Bongaigaon district of Assam, India, 2020
The AES surveillance system in Bongaigaon district is well established. Overall, the system is simple and acceptable and has good data quality but requires improvement for timeliness of suspected case reporting and representativeness. Inclusion of potential private hospitals in the reporting system and regular orientation of nodal officers and health care providers would improve case detection and reporting.
