The Global Public Health Intelligence Network.: H39-4/17-2003E-PDF
"The Global Public Health Intelligence Network (GPHIN) is a secure Internet-based “early warning” system that gathers preliminary reports of public health significance on a “real-time”, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week basis. This unique multilingual system gathers and disseminates relevant information on disease outbreaks and other public health events by monitoring global media sources such as news wires and web sites. The information is filtered for relevancy by an automated process which is then complemented by human analysis. The output is categorized and made accessible to users. Notifications about public health events that may have serious public health consequences are immediately forwarded to users"--What is GPHIN?, page [2].
