Barriers and facilitators of reporting foodborne illness

Traditional surveillance methods have a major challenge to estimating the burden of disease due to underreporting. Participatory surveillance techniques can help supplement to monitor and detect foodborne outbreaks while reducing the impact of underreporting. As there is a low participation rate in Singapore, this study aims to better understand the barriers and facilitators to reporting and assesses what improvements can increase participation.

Objective:

To better understand the barriers and facilitators to reporting and assessing what improvements would increase participation.
