Latest WHO Disease Outbreak News (DONs), providing information on confirmed acute public health events or potential events of concern.

According to Article 11.4 of the International Health Regulations (2005) [IHR (2005)], WHO may make information on acute public health events available, if other information about the same event has already become publicly available and there is a need for the dissemination of authoritative and independent information. The DON reports fulfill this requirement.
