An disease outbreak is defined as an occurrence of cases of a disease that exceeds normal expectations in a specific community. An outbreak can be restricted to a geographical area or extend across multiple countries, and can last from a few days to several years. A single case of a communicable disease that is not normally present in a population, or is caused by a new bacterium or virus, should also be considered an outbreak and investigated.

2. A disease outbreak is the occurrence of cases of
disease in excess of what would normally be expected
in a defined community. An outbreak may occur in a
restricted geographical area, or may extend over
several countries. It may last for a few days or weeks,
or for several years.
A single case of a communicable disease long absent
from a population, or caused by an agent (e.g.
bacterium or virus) not previously recognized in that
community or area, or the emergence of a previously
unknown disease, may also constitute an outbreak
and should be reported and investigated.
3. H1N1(Swine Flu) is a very contagious
disease. If Asia was infected by H1N1, the
tourism coming in Asia would decrease. Asia
is one of the biggest continent, therefor the
tourism would impact Asia greatly.
4. Feedback from Miss See Toh
• Good definition given for disease outbreak
• Deleted the background picture as the words
cant be read
• Did not elaborate how H1N1 affected Tourism
in terms of Tourism Arrivals/ Tourism
Spendings/ What Government did?
• Only mention that Tourism will decrease.. Can
elaborate further with examples.
