Information Technology’s Role in Information Technology’s Role in Improving Syndromic SurveillanceImproving Syndromic Surveillance
Information technology offers several valuable features for syndromic surveillance: • Electronic nature
• Ability to conduct real-time surveillance
• Value of its monitoring data that are routinely collected in daily social activities
