How do we address an "epidemic" by using the surveillance data?
Ans) An outbreak refers to a more localized situation in space and/or time, while epidemic often refers to a more widespread (and perhaps prolonged) situation.
There are two main ways that epidemiologists and public health officials collect surveillance data:
1) Passive surveillance/data collection:
Data are acquired from other primary sources and have been
derived for other purposes.
E.g., Collecting data from samples sent into a lab for testing,
reports by doctors to public health agencies (notifiable diseases),
hospital discharge information, and/or absenteeism information from
schools.
2) Active surveillance/ data collection:
Data is actively searched for and collected for the goal of
surveillance. Essentially, targeted surveillance activities.
E.g., Sampling retail meats for enteric pathogens, testing hospital
volunteers for tuberculosis, swabbing carcasses at
slaughterhouses.

1. Much of public health informatics involves the application of disease surveillance and monitoring systems. These systems collect and provide data for epidemiologists, biostatisticians and other public health professionals to analyze to get a better picture of public health status. Partners in Information Access for the Public Health Workforce http://phpartners.org/health_stats.html is a collaborative of local, state, territorial, national and private partners that provides up-to-date resources and information for public health professionals. There is a list of many of the widely...
