During the past ten years, the syndromic surveillance has mainly developed thanks to clinical data sources (i.e. emergency department, emergency medical call system, etc.). However, in these systems, the population doesn’t play an active role. It is now important that the population becomes an actor of this surveillance; especially since several European experiences about influenza showed that the population could participate to an internet-based monitoring. In Reunion Island, the population is very sensitive to public health concerns. In this context, the health authorities implemented since April 2014 a web-based surveillance system, called “Koman i lé”, that allows to follow the perceived health among people who don’t systematically see their general practitioner.
Objective
