• A London‐based doctor reported via HealthMap’s“Outbreaks Near Me” mobile application that his family in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, India was ill with Chikungunya

• Report went on to say that local hospitals were full, and that the MOH was not reporting cases or providing information on prevention or treatment 

• HM was able to enhance surveillance capabilities for this disease and location, and provide users with this information earlier than any other source

Conclusions

• Value in the fusion and visualization of distributed electronic resources (online epidemic intelligence, social networks, mobile technology)

• Novel Internet‐based collaborative systems can play an important complementary role in gathering information quickly and improving coverage and accessibility.

• These early efforts at tapping the power of digital tools demonstrate important steps in improving health systems as well as engaging the public as participants in the public health process.
