At the time, our aim was to provide medical students, house officers, and practitioners with
While western countries usually have effective and comprehensive systems for monitoring infectious diseases, the countries most at risk often also lack the systems for quality reporting. HealthMap is a Google-founded research project that tries to counter this by using publicly available online information from non-official sources, such as news outlets, discussion forums and blogs, to [...]
