Vector-borne Infections VBI: risk based and cost effective surveillance systems
Dynamic risk-based surveillance for VBI carries the promise of a more cost-effective approach to the threats of re-emerging and emerging vector borne diseases in Europe. The VICE project will provide an innovative framework for a dynamic risk based surveillance system. The system will use risks of import, risks of disease spread and routinely collected surveillance data to focus the costly active surveillance activities. The sensitivity and the cost-effectiveness of the system will be assessed.
Objectives
The overall aim is to develop a fully functional framework for a dynamic risk-based surveillance for VBD according to EMIDAs specific topic A5. The potential risk of outbreaks of VBD and consequently the spread within the population at risk will be continuously estimated. This will permit 1) active surveillance to be focused on specific periods and areas of elevated risk and 2) active surveillance activities to be fitted to the available resources at EU and national level.
The objectives for 2015 are to finalize the project and dissemination of results.
