    An outbreak of infectious diseases is likely after an earthquake due to factors such as population displacement into camps, environmental changes, and loss of public utilities. Diseases can spread through direct contact, airborne transmission, droplets, or vectors. Controlling the outbreak requires establishing surveillance and monitoring of diseases, providing clean drinking water and sanitation, limiting pesticide usage, and implementing medical and environmental health measures like immunization, isolation, water supply and vector control.
