Document: Disease or pathogen-specific public health diagnostic laboratories established to support world health organization (WHO)-specific disease surveillance programs and vaccine-preventable diseases, e.g., national influenza, poliovirus and measles laboratories, led to the 'compartmentalization' of laboratory diagnostic services, segregation of functions, and duplication of facilities and equipment. The situation is further complicated by the siting of various pathogen-specific diagnostic laboratories in different buildings or institutes or different locations within a country, thus preventing more cost-effective measures of sharing common equipment and reagents, clinical samples, information and human resources. Finally, the problem is compounded by policy makers and laboratory managers lacking flexibility and not allowing these disease or pathogen-specific laboratories to adopt a more generic approach in the investigation of infectious disease outbreaks.
