It is worth to emphasize that the site-control is vital for the epidemic control, which includes the block of epidemic area(point) of infectious disease, area isolation and carring out feasible control measures.

(I feel using two "controls" in a row sounds awkward. But how to improve?)

My first edited version:

(Still sounds awkward: caused by two control usage)

@oristarA,
It is worth emphasising that site control is vital for epidemic control. This includes blocking and isolating the area of infectious disease while at the same time carrying out other feasible measures for preventing the spread of the epidemic.

Hasn't anyone noticed this yet?

Mona Leeza has given you a good edit. There is no problem with using "control" twice because these are specific terms in which the word control is used. While you are correct that it is a good idea to avoid the repetition of words to make text more enjoyable to read, in this case you need to use the word twice because it is a part of known expressions.
