• March 16th, 2006 - Colloquium in Kent : The surveillance of epidemies, by Marguerite. A. Erme, DO, MPH Disease Control Medical Officer Akron Health Department. Document 1. Document 2.

  Abstract : The surveillance of communicable diseases on a local level is an imprecise and time-dependent event. Waiting for the confirmation of a disease by laboratory testing can takes days and this delay may be problematic if a disease outbreak is suspected. There are other methods to attempt earlier detection of a disease outbreak before a specific organism is identified. There are limitations to these methods. I will discuss the methods used to try to detect disease outbreaks on a local level, their limitations, and the need for better mathematical models (from a non-mathematician standpoint) to improve disease and outbreak surveillance.
