Escalation pathways
These pathways are intended to provide a clear process for use by local public health teams for any communicable disease issues that need:
- peer discussion with national teams
- to be shared with national teams for information/awareness
- escalation to national teams for a nationally enabled response (e.g. coordination of an IMT)
