Disease Surveillance: Technological Contributions to Global Health
Security reminds us of the continued vulnerability of the world to
contagious infections. The book presents examples of disease
surveillance systems and evaluates promising advances as well as
opportunities for new systems. It also explains how newer
technologies can allow countries to comply with the International
Health Regulations established by the World Health Organization.
The book covers various topics including international health
regulations policy, challenges surrounding system deployment and
implementation, data visualization techniques, the strengths and
weaknesses of open source software, and legal considerations
surrounding such software. This book will show you how new
reporting requirements, combined with new technologies, big data
sources, and sophisticated analytic approaches now enable the
public health community to identify potential outbreaks and
initiate a response earlier than at any other time in history.
