Snippet: The first step of the process is surveillance by individual agencies, regardless of the biosurveillance system. The biosurveillance-related data from each agency are sent to the NBIC for integration. The NBIC also searches for relevant data from private sources. By continuously integrating and interpreting the merged information, the NBIC can detect potential risk. Regarding the guidelines for early detection, IRCA states that the NBIC is to use .....
Document: The first step of the process is surveillance by individual agencies, regardless of the biosurveillance system. The biosurveillance-related data from each agency are sent to the NBIC for integration. The NBIC also searches for relevant data from private sources. By continuously integrating and interpreting the merged information, the NBIC can detect potential risk. Regarding the guidelines for early detection, IRCA states that the NBIC is to use the ''best available statistical and other analytical tools to identify and characterize biological events'' [Section 316(c)(3)]. Following detection of an event, the NBIC must report it to the relevant federal departments and a secretary for a final decision. Ultimately, IRCA aims to achieve real-time situational awareness by integrating as much useful information as possible, thus preventing or minimizing harm.
