Multilevel regression analysis was employed to assess the performance and efficiency of public health surveillance systems at both national and regional levels.

The multilevel regression analysis revealed a significant positive effect (p-value < 0.05) on yield improvement in regions with more robust surveillance infrastructures, indicating that improved infrastructure leads to better monitoring outcomes. Our findings suggest that enhancing public health surveillance systems can significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of disease detection and response efforts in Senegal. Based on our results, we recommend investing in upgrading surveillance technology and training personnel in high-risk regions to further optimise yield improvement metrics.
