Description
Use for the Analytic Solutions for Real-Time Surveillance: Asyndromic Cluster Detection consultancy held June 9-10, 2015 at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.
Problem Summary
A syndrome cannot be created to identify every possible cluster of potential public health significance. A method is needed to identify clusters without pre-classification into syndromes. This could include clusters of signs or symptoms, clusters of place names (e.g. mentioning a specific restaurant), clusters of events (e.g. mentioning a specific fair, concert, etc.).
