Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has proven to be an effective tool in predicting, detecting, and mitigating the spread of infectious diseases, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The technology is increasingly playing a role in preventing future health crises by predicting outbreaks, identifying high-risk areas, and aiding in vaccine development. AI can track and trace infected individuals and identify potential hotspots, help reduce the spread of infectious diseases, and monitor patient symptoms, enabling healthcare professionals to provide effective treatment.
