When Infodemic Meets Epidemic: Systematic Literature Review

When Infodemic Meets Epidemic: Systematic Literature Review

The search terms used included “social media” and “epidemics,” with variations depending on the RQ’s objectives and the database searched. For RQ1, the search results of the query (“social media” AND “epidemics”) were complemented by the results of the query (“social media” AND “epidemics” AND “monitoring” AND “tracking”). The combination of these 2 queries allowed for result-filtering without overlimiting the output. The query (“social media” AND “epidemics” AND “fake news”) was used for RQ2.

Periodic Characteristics of Hepatitis Virus Infections From 2013 to 2020 and Their Association With Meteorological Factors in Guangdong, China: Surveillance Study

Periodic Characteristics of Hepatitis Virus Infections From 2013 to 2020 and Their Association With Meteorological Factors in Guangdong, China: Surveillance Study

Previous research has shown that hepatitis epidemics in China exhibit oscillatory properties at a national level [35,36]. Natural forces (eg, temperature [37] and natural disasters [38]) might drive this oscillatory infection. Several examples have shown that epidemics, such as measles [39], pertussis [40-44], influenza [45], and rabies [46-48], can have oscillations. However, whether the oscillatory phenomena of hepatitis epidemics were influenced by environmental factors remains unclear.

Joint Analysis of the Epidemic Evolution and Human Mobility During the First Wave of COVID-19 in Spain: Retrospective Study

Joint Analysis of the Epidemic Evolution and Human Mobility During the First Wave of COVID-19 in Spain: Retrospective Study

This emphasizes the importance of timely containment efforts in managing emerging epidemics [7,19,20,58]. Several aspects of our analysis could be improved if more detailed data were available. For instance, the epidemiological model could be age-stratified if relevant data were available for Spain regarding symptom onset to hospitalization and death [36]. The same applies to geographical heterogeneity.

The Impact of the Online COVID-19 Infodemic on French Red Cross Actors’ Field Engagement and Protective Behaviors: Mixed Methods Study

The Impact of the Online COVID-19 Infodemic on French Red Cross Actors’ Field Engagement and Protective Behaviors: Mixed Methods Study

Neither this phenomenon during epidemics nor investigations of it are new. Infodemiology—“the study of the determinants and distribution of health information and misinformation”—emerged in the late 20th century and was shortly thereafter conceptualized as a field of study [6,7]. Infodemics as informational companions to epidemics developed with the first SARS epidemic and continued subsequently during the H1 N1, Ebola, and Zika public health emergencies [8-10].

Author Contribution Correction: An Integrated Influenza Surveillance Framework Based on National Influenza-Like Illness Incidence and Multiple Hospital Electronic Medical Records for Early Prediction of Influenza Epidemics: Design and Evaluation

Author Contribution Correction: An Integrated Influenza Surveillance Framework Based on National Influenza-Like Illness Incidence and Multiple Hospital Electronic Medical Records for Early Prediction of Influenza Epidemics: Design and Evaluation

The authors of “An Integrated Influenza Surveillance Framework Based on National Influenza-Like Illness Incidence and Multiple Hospital Electronic Medical Records for Early Prediction of Influenza Epidemics: Design and Evaluation” (J Med Internet Res 2019;21(2):e12341) inadvertently marked Yu-Sheng Lo as an equal contributor when that designation should have only been applied to Cheng-Yi Yang and Ray-Jade Chen. The asterisk denoting equal contribution has now been removed from Yu-Sheng Lo.
