Infectious diseases are one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in the world. Due to these times of increased globalization, Europe must react quickly to the threat of infectious diseases by introducing effective control mechanisms and prevention programs to limit their spread. From the perspective of international cooperation, the Czech Republic is bound to ensure the reporting of infectious diseases from the national level to the EU Community and the World Health Organization. The following work is dedicated to the study of infectious disease surveillance. This study looks at the initial origins of infectious disease surveillance, to the development of surveillance in the Czech Republic and the recent advances in infectious disease surveillance in the European Union. The research also takes a brief look at the general principles of surveillance and the global situation, all as a means to give a comprehensive study of disease surveillance as a way to control the spread of infectious diseases. Finally, this thesis outlines the changes that have occurred in infectious disease surveillance in Czech Republic and the European Union during this last decade.
