Returns disease outbreak information of a disease in a country.
- **`outbreak_start`** _(deprecated)_ – Replaced by `outbreak_first_reported`. Do not use.
- **`outbreak_end`** _(deprecated)_ – Replaced by `outbreak_last_reported`. Do not use.
The `type` field in the outbreak response indicates the nature of the reported disease occurrence. It can have one or two comma-separated values:
| Value | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `outbreak` | A confirmed outbreak involving multiple cases linked by time and location. |
| `sporadic` | A single or isolated case not linked to other known cases. |
| `travelcase` | The case was imported from another country or region, typically through travel. |
| `outbreak,travelcases` | A cluster of travel-related cases that are considered part of an outbreak. |
| `sporadic,travelcase` | A single travel-related case that is not part of a known outbreak. |
>
**Note:** Values may appear in combination (e.g., `outbreak,travelcases`) to indicate both the type of event and whether the case(s) were travel-related.
