Abstrakt: Global public health surveillance relies on reporting structures and trans- mission of trustworthy health reports. But in practice, these processes may not al- ways be fast enough, or are hindered by procedural, technical, or political barriers. GPHIN, the Global Public Health Intelligence Network, was designed in the late 1990s to scour mainstream news for health events, as that travels faster and more freely. This paper outlines the next generation of GPHIN, which went live in 2017, and reports on design decisions underpinning its new functions and innovations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
