  • Epidemiology
CONT

The epidemiological calendar is comprised of 52 epidemiological weeks that divide the 365 days of the calendar year. Its use during surveillance activities is important because by standardizing the time variable, it provides a means to compare epidemiological events that occur in a country during a specific period of time to others occurring at a later time or in another country.
