Early detection of outbreaks of transmissible diseases is essential for public health. This study aimed to determine the performance of the wavelet‐based outbreak detection method (WOD) in detecting outbreaks and to compare its performance with the Poisson regression‐based model and exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) using data of simulated pertussis outbreaks in Iran.
