Unfortunately, epidemiologists sometimes cannot easily determine the source of infection and any associated risk factors. For example, several outbreaks of Cyclosporiasis in the 1990s challenged epidemiologists in terms of source identification (Herwaldt, 2000). The identification and implementation of control measures prior to identifying the source of infection represents another interesting challenge. Public...
