Evidence and lessons on efforts to mitigate the secondary impact of past disease outbreaks and associated response and control measures

This rapid literature review finds limited evidence and lessons on responses to the secondary effects of disease outbreaks. The secondary effects are explained in more detail in a companion paper (Rohwerder, 2020). They include disruption of livelihoods and markets, disruption to communities, disruption to services (especially health), stigmatisation, psycho-social problems, human rights violations and weakening trust in governance.
