Real-time disease monitoring
Real-time disease monitoring refers to the ongoing tracking of health data to quickly identify outbreaks of diseases or health trends in a population. This is achieved through the use of technology, such as mobile apps and data analytics, which collect information from hospitals, clinics, and even social media. By analyzing this data in real-time, public health officials can respond swiftly to potential threats, allocate resources effectively, and inform the public about necessary health precautions. This proactive approach helps to prevent the spread of diseases and protect community health.
