I am a Focal Point from an ASEAN Member State and I previously reported in WAHIS an ARAHIS-related disease only in the WAHIS six-monthly report. What shall I now do from 1st January 2025?

When a new outbreak is detected, report it in the WAHIS early warning module as an immediate notification, then each month submit a follow-up report, even if there is no change to the event. No alert will be sent to the subscribers of the WAHIS distribution list regarding the creation of the immediate notification.

Further information on the use of WAHIS can be found by contacting the WAHIS-support desk here.
