Snippet: In general, we found that, after systematic processing to remove inconsistencies, data from ProMED and HealthMap were in reasonably good agreement with the data collected through traditional surveillance methods and collated by WHO. In particular, both the incidence time-series and retrospective national estimates of transmissibility over time were well correlated across the three data sources. This suggests that digital surveillance data are a p.....
Document: In general, we found that, after systematic processing to remove inconsistencies, data from ProMED and HealthMap were in reasonably good agreement with the data collected through traditional surveillance methods and collated by WHO. In particular, both the incidence time-series and retrospective national estimates of transmissibility over time were well correlated across the three data sources. This suggests that digital surveillance data are a promising avenue for quantitative assessment of outbreak dynamics in real-time.
