An epidemiosurveillance network for diseases of animals was introduced in Chad to ensure early reporting to animal husbandry organisations should the incidence of an existing disease increase, or should an exotic disease reappear. The network also serves for the collection of information on the principal diseases of livestock. A list of eight priority diseases was drawn up with specific surveillance objectives for each disease. Information (from surveys and sampling) from all new outbreaks of the diseases under surveillance is gathered by participants in the field (officials in public service and private veterinarians) and sent to the diagnostic laboratory, which examines the findings before disseminating them to the field. The first year of operation in the field has made it possible to evaluate the feasibility of the method and to collect fundamental epidemiological information on the diseases under surveillance. The advantage of the network is the provision of a means of communication between the field and the laboratory. The network enables collection of information in a standard form, the training of field agents and the organisation of the structure of the laboratory. Persistent problems are the motivation of some participants in the field and difficulties in communication which have to be overcome in order to obtain reliable data rapidly.
乍得引入了一个动物疾病流行病学监测网络，以确保在现有疾病发病率上升或外来疾病再次出现时，能尽早向畜牧组织报告。该网络还用于收集有关家畜主要疾病的信息。制定了一份包含八种重点疾病的清单，并为每种疾病设定了具体的监测目标。实地（公共服务部门官员和私人兽医）参与者收集受监测疾病所有新疫情的信息（来自调查和采样），并将其发送至诊断实验室，实验室在将结果传播至实地之前会对结果进行检查。该方法在实地运行的第一年使得评估该方法的可行性以及收集有关受监测疾病的基本流行病学信息成为可能。该网络的优势在于提供了一种实地与实验室之间的沟通方式。该网络能够以标准形式收集信息、培训实地工作人员并组织实验室架构。一些实地参与者积极性不高以及沟通存在困难等问题仍然存在，必须克服这些问题才能迅速获得可靠数据。
