| مستخلص: | Background: Infectious disease pandemics and epidemics pose significant global threats, and the risk of emerging infectious diseases has increased because of factors such as international connections, travel, and population density. Despite investments in global health surveillance, much of the world remains unprepared to manage infectious disease threats. Objectives: This review article discusses the general considerations and lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of epidemic preparedness. Sources: Non-systematic search on PubMed, scientific society websites, and scientific newspapers (performed in April 2023). Content: Key factors for preparedness include robust public health infrastructure, adequate allocation of resources, and effective communication between stakeholders. This narrative review emphasizes the need for timely and accurate dissemination of medical knowledge, as well as addressing the challenges of misinformation and infodemics. It also highlights the importance of quick availability of diagnostic tests and vaccines, ensuring equitable access to these technologies. The role of scientific coordination in developing treatment strategies and the safety and mental well-being of healthcare workers are discussed. Lastly, it should be emphasized the need for medical training, multidisciplinary teams, new technologies and artificial intelligence, and the active role of infectious disease physicians in epidemic preparedness efforts. Implications: From clinicians' perspective, healthcare authorities play a crucial role in epidemic preparedness even by providing resource management plans, ensuring availability of essential supplies and training, facilitating communication, and improving safe infection management.
