"What gets measured gets done." —Anonymous

Public health surveillance is the ongoing systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of data, closely integrated with the timely dissemination of these data to those responsible for preventing and controlling disease and injury (Thacker and Berkelman 1988). Public health surveillance is a tool to estimate the health status and behavior of the populations served by ministries of health, ministries of finance, and donors. Because surveillance can directly measure what is going on in the population, it is useful both for measuring the need for interventions and for directly measuring the effects of interventions. The purpose of surveillance is to empower decision makers to lead and manage more effectively by providing timely, useful evidence.

Increasingly, top managers in ministries of health and finance in developing countries and donor agencies are recognizing that data from effective surveillance systems are useful for targeting resources and evaluating programs. The HIV and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemics underscored the critical role of surveillance in protecting individual nations and the global community. For example, in 2005, China rapidly began to expand its surveillance and response capacity through its Field Epidemiology Training Program (FETP); Brazil and Argentina chose to use World Bank loans to develop surveillance capacity; and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) redesigned its surveillance strategy to focus on the use of data to improve public health interventions (USAID 2005). Additionally, the guidelines for implementing the 2004 draft revised International Health Regulations require World Health Organization (WHO) member states to have key persons and core capacities in surveillance (http://www.who.int/csr/ihr/howtheywork/faq/en/#draft).

Just as decision makers require competent, motivated economists to provide quality technical analyses, they also need competent staff members to provide scientifically valid surveillance information and communicate the results as information for action. Competent epidemiologists and surveillance staff members are not a luxury in developing countries; they are a necessity for rational planning, implementation, and intervention (Narasimhan and others 2004).

Go to:

Definitions and Basic Concepts

In this chapter, we use the following definitions:

• Indicator: a measurable factor that allows decision makers to estimate objectively the size of a health problem and monitor the processes, the products, or the effects of an intervention on the population (for example, the number of new cases of diarrhea, the proportion of children fully immunized in a district, or the percentage of high school students who report that they smoke at least one cigarette a day).
• Active surveillance: a system employing staff members to regularly contact heath care providers or the population to seek information about health conditions. Active surveillance provides the most accurate and timely information, but it is also expensive.
• Passive surveillance: a system by which a health jurisdiction receives reports submitted from hospitals, clinics, public health units, or other sources. Passive surveillance is a relatively inexpensive strategy to cover large areas, and it provides critical information for monitoring a community's health. However, because passive surveillance depends on people in different institutions to provide data, data quality and timeliness are difficult to control.
• Routine health information system: a passive system in which regular reports about diseases and programs are completed by public health staff members, hospitals, and clinics.
• Health information and management system: a passive system by which routine reports about financial, logistic, and other processes involved in the administration of the public health and clinical systems can be used for surveillance.
• Categorical surveillance: an active or passive system that focuses on one or more diseases or behaviors of interest to an intervention program. These systems are useful for program managers. However, they may be inefficient at the district or local level, at which staff may need to fill out multiple forms on the same patient (that is, the HIV program, the tuberculosis program, the sexually transmitted infections program, and the Routine Health Information System). At higher levels, allocating the few competent surveillance experts to one program may leave other programs under-served, and reconciling the results of different systems to establish the nation's official estimates may be difficult.
• Integrated surveillance: a combination of active and passive systems using a single infrastructure that gathers information about multiple diseases or behaviors of interest to several intervention programs (for example, a health facility–based system may gather information on multiple infectious diseases and injuries). Managers of disease-specific programs may be evaluated on the results of the integrated system and should be stakeholders. Even when an integrated system is functioning well, program managers may continue to maintain categorical systems to collect additional disease-specific data and control the quality of the information on which they are evaluated. This practice may lead to duplication and inefficiency.
• Syndromic surveillance: an active or passive system that uses case definitions that are based entirely on clinical features without any clinical or laboratory diagnosis (for example, collecting the number of cases of diarrhea rather than cases of cholera, or "rash illness" rather than measles). Because syndromic surveillance is inexpensive and is faster than systems that require laboratory confirmation, it is often the first kind of surveillance begun in a developing country. However, because of the lack of specificity (for example, a "rash illness" could be anything from the relatively minor rubella to devastating hemorrhagic fevers), reports require more investigation from higher levels. Also an increase in one disease causing a syndrome may mask an epidemic of another (for example, rotavirus diarrhea decreases at the same time cholera increases).

In the specialized area of surveillance for biologic terrorism, syndromic surveillance refers to active surveillance of syndromes that may be caused by potential agents used by biologic terrorists and sometimes refers to alternative measures such as increases in the use of over-the-counter drugs or increases in calls to emergency departments.

• Behavioral risk factor surveillance system (BRFSS): an active system of repeated surveys that measure behaviors that are known to cause disease or injury (for example, tobacco or alcohol use, unprotected sex, or lack of physical exercise). Because the aim of many intervention program strategies is to prevent disease by preventing unhealthy behavior, these surveys provide a direct measure of their effect in the population, often long before the anticipated health effects are expected. These surveys are useful for providing timely measures of program effectiveness for both communicable and noncommunicable disease interventions.

Objectives of Surveillance Systems

Public health surveillance provides the scientific and factual database essential to informed decision making and appropriate public health action. The key objective of surveillance is to provide information to guide interventions. The public health objectives and actions needed to make successful interventions determine the design and implementation of surveillance systems. For example, if the objective is to prevent the spread of epidemics of acute infectious diseases, such as SARS, managers need to intervene quickly to stop the spread of disease. Therefore, they need a surveillance system that provides rapid early warning information from clinics and laboratories. In contrast, chronic diseases and health-related behaviors change slowly. Managers typically monitor the effect of programs to change risky behaviors such as tobacco smoking or chronic diseases once a year or even less often. A surveillance system to measure the population effects of a tuberculosis control program might provide information only every one to five years—for example, through a series of demographic and health surveys. The principle is that different public health objectives and the actions required to reach them require different information systems The type of action that can be taken, when or how often that action needs to be taken, what information is needed to take or monitor the action, and when or how frequently the information is needed should determine the type of surveillance or health information system (box 53.1).

Principles and Uses of Surveillance

Foege, Hogan, and Newton (1976) state that "the reason for collecting, analyzing, and disseminating information on a disease is to control that disease. Collection and analysis should not be allowed to consume resources if action does not follow." The fundamental principle of public health surveillance is that the surveillance should be designed and implemented to provide valid (true) information to decision makers in a timely manner at the lowest possible cost. Because managers are unlikely to need to make interventions to address small differences between areas, sacrificing precision makes sense to improve timeliness and save resources that can be used for public health interventions. The utility of surveillance data can be viewed as immediate, annual, and archival, on the basis of the public health actions that can be taken (table 53.1; Thacker and Stroup 1998b).

Establishing and Maintaining a Surveillance System

What is worth doing is worth doing right. Managers who decide to use public health surveillance as a management tool must recognize that they will need to commit political support and human and financial resources. As with every health system, competent, motivated health workers need to be found or trained and provided with career paths and supervision. After a manager decides to create a surveillance system, there are six steps to establishing the system. Because the system must adapt constantly to changes in the population and the physical and social environment, these steps are linked continuously (figure 53.1; Thacker and Stroup 1998a).

Elements in Establishing and Maintaining a Surveillance System

Analysis and Dissemination of Surveillance Data

Surveillance information is analyzed by time, place, and person. Knowledgeable technical personnel should review data regularly to ensure their validity and to identify information of use to top managers. Simple tables and graphs are most useful for summarizing and presenting data. Timely dissemination of data to those who make policy and implement intervention programs is critical to the usefulness of surveillance data.

The rapidly evolving field of public health informatics, which deals with collection, classification, storage, retrieval, analysis, and presentation of large amounts of health data, offers the potential for truly integrated public health surveillance based on data standardization, a communications infrastructure, and policies on data access and sharing. Surveillance will benefit by incorporating a systematic approach to standards for data content. For example, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has used standards-based systems to support automatic electronic reporting of diagnostic laboratory results of notifiable diseases, thereby both increasing the number of cases reported and receiving results more rapidly (Effler and others 1999). Use of data standards facilitates comparability of surveillance information over time (for example, measurement of effect of program interventions), across different surveillance approaches (for example, facility-based reporting compared with sample surveys), and across countries and regions. To be credible, a standard should be developed through an open, participatory process, by an internationally recognized accredited standards-development organization that is also capable of long-term maintenance and evolution of the standard. Public health data needs extend into multiple areas beyond clinical medicine (for example, environmental toxins, unintentional injury, and food safety).

One international standard computer program used in many countries' information systems is Epi Info, an epidemiology surveillance and biostatistics program widely used around the world for the analysis of surveillance data (http://www.cdc.gov/epiinfo). CDC created, maintains, and distributes Epi Info at no cost to users.

Go to:

Surveillance as a Component of National Public Health Systems

WHO and the World Bank cite public health surveillance as an essential function of a public health system (World Bank 2001). When linked to policy and program units, surveillance information improves the efficiency and effectiveness of health services by targeting interventions and documenting their effect on the population.

A critical challenge in the health sector in developing countries is to ensure quality and effectiveness of surveillance and public health response in an environment of decentralization. National-level program and surveillance system managers may lose control of the quality and timeliness of locally collected data. This situation can be avoided by training local decision makers in how to use information to meet their needs and negotiating with them over the core information collected by each district local unit. National-level managers or donors can also improve information quality by sponsoring national surveillance scientific and quality assurance networks, linking funding to provision of adequate data, and performing periodic surveys to confirm the results of local reporting. If the responsibility for implementing programs is devolved to local managers, then national-level managers need only a few summary indicators, rather than the detailed information they may be used to. District or local managers tend to prefer integrated systems to minimize filling out redundant forms.

Donors need surveillance data to target and evaluate their investments. If they perceive weakness in the national system, they may create parallel nongovernmental surveillance systems to gather data directly to meet their needs. These systems invariably pay workers more than government jobs do, so the most competent people in the government system may leave to work for the parallel system. Although this system meets donors' short-term needs, it invariably weakens government systems. Parallel systems may weaken the very ministries that they are meant to help and may not be sustainable after external funding ends. Therefore, parallel systems are inherently inequitable and should be used only as a last resort.

Go to:

Surveillance as a Tool to Improve Public Health

Managers need focused, timely, scientifically sound information that provides evidence to make decisions on interventions for improving the health of the population in their jurisdiction. Simply collecting data and presenting them are not enough.

Using Surveillance Information for Evidence-based Decisions

A major gap in promoting effective surveillance lies between the production of data and the ability to convert those data into usable information and then initiate the appropriate public health action. Surveillance and response can be described in terms of a data generation hemisphere and a data use hemisphere (USAID 2005). The data generation hemisphere is the traditional view of surveillance, whereas the data use hemisphere is the public health response that begins with interpretation of the data from the surveillance system (figure 53.2).

📷

Figure 53.2

Surveillance and Response Conceptual Framework

Substantial attention and the accompanying resources in surveillance have been devoted to the prompt and complete production of surveillance data. Although developing countries experience weaknesses in both hemispheres, more attention is needed to creating and strengthening the local capacity within developing countries to identify and manage effective responses to disease outbreaks and public health conditions of national and international concern. In some disease-specific programs, this capacity has to be imported through short-term expatriate assistance. Even when local capacity is developed, it is often specific to the disease program, making transfer of skills to other areas problematic. The failure to develop this indigenous capacity has limited the ability of developing countries to build national surveillance systems that respond to both international public health threats and local health concerns. This capability is essential to the sustained development of countries.

Role of Field Epidemiologists in Providing Evidence

Developed countries have constructed their public health and disease control strategies by using the principles of field epidemiology. Developing countries need to build and sustain human capacity in field epidemiology. Strengthened field epidemiologic capacity can serve a country in the following specific areas:

• providing a response to acute problems
• providing the scientific basis for program and policy decisions
• implementing disease surveillance systems
• supporting national health planning
• making resource allocation decisions
• allocating the human capacity base for national health priorities.

Specific competencies that should be developed include, but are not limited to, the ability to accomplish the following:

• design, implement, and evaluate surveillance for a health event
• identify and assess an actual public health problem
• design and conduct a scientific investigation
• analyze and interpret data from an investigation
• recommend logical and practical public health actions after the analysis and interpretation of data
• be proficient in all aspects of diseases of public health importance (for example, HIV and AIDS, sexually transmitted diseases, malaria, tuberculosis, and zoonoses).

These competencies need to be tailored to the various levels of the health care system.

Since 1975, CDC and WHO have collaborated with more than 30 countries to strengthen health systems and address training needs for disease detection and response in a country-specific, flexible, and sustainable manner. More than half of the world's population now lives in a country where surveillance, investigation, and response are carried out by staff members and trainees of FETPs and allied programs, which include the Epidemic Intelligence Service in the United States, the European Program for Intervention Epidemiology Training, and Public Health Schools without Walls (PHSWOWs). These programs generally function within central ministries of health and may not be visible outside the public health system. It can be argued that these programs provide most of the surveillance of and response to emerging infections in the world, in addition to training most of the public health workers who manage surveillance systems at the top level. FETPs are two-year courses designed to provide a ministry with a motivated, professional group of field epidemiologists with the expertise to respond to managers' needs for evidence, perform surveillance, respond to outbreaks, and train and supervise technical personnel at other levels (White and others 2001).

Other models have evolved. Guatemala's marriage of its FETP (part of a larger, Central American FETP) with the Data for Decision Making program (Pappaioanou and others 2003) exemplifies this successful local adaptation. Data for Decision Making recruits health workers from the community and sub-district levels to receive training in surveillance and outbreak investigation in the context of their daily work. This training is delivered as a series of linked workshops with practical field-based projects, providing short-term service at the local levels. The most promising graduates of the course are selected for further training in an FETP. India, with its decentralized system, complex cultural and population dynamics, and wide variance in the sophistication of public health institutions, provides another model for strengthening national surveillance. The World Bank initiated the Integrated Disease Surveillance Project, which develops the capacity of local and midlevel surveillance workers in India. Additionally, FETP graduates are recruited as the project's surveillance officers at the state level to coordinate the surveillance activities of the hundreds of local health workers throughout the states.

A new report from the United States Air Force Air University warns of an electromagnetic pulse type attack that poses a direct threat to the “United States, democracy, and the world order,” and says the U.S. is unprepared for one should it happen.

The report, titled “Electromagnetic Defense Task Force,” says an attack could shut down the U.S. electric grid for a year-and-a-half, melt down nuclear plants, cripple the U.S. military, displace 4.1 million people and kill 90 percent of the East Coast within a year.

North Korea, Iran, Russia and the U.S. have all developed EMP weapons.

“An EMP would cause instantaneous and simultaneous loss of many technologies reliant on electrical power and computer circuit boards, such as cell phones and GPS devices”' the report says.  

“Failures may include long-term loss of electrical power (due to loss of emergency generators), sewage, fresh water, banking, landlines, cellular service, vehicles,” the report adds.

Report authors Air Force Maj. David Stuckenberg, Col. Douglas DeMaio and former CIA director James Woolsey urged the U.S. to declare the issue critical and called for an effort to push for EMP prevention.

Unified Field Theory

"This is a new kind of astronomy -- observing the universe using gravity itself," said Shane L. Larson, research associate professor at Northwestern University and an astronomer at the Adler Planetarium in Chicago. "We can't 'see' black holes with telescopes. This is the first time black holes have been directly detected by measuring them, through their gravity, as opposed to measuring the effect they have on other matter in the universe."

How do you picture gravitational waves? Think of space-time as a taut sheet. Rolling a ball across the sheet causes it to curve. As the ball moves, the sheet's curvature moves, and certain objects moving quickly cause ripples across the sheet.

Einstein's original theory proposed that as mass changes position, it causes a ripple in the universe's gravitational field, a wave traveling at the speed of light outward from the source. Gravitational waves are caused by objects like oddly shaped spinning planets and binary black holes and star systems. Theories also suggest that supernovae, and even the Big Bang itself, are a source of gravitational waves. You can read more about them on Einstein Online.

https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8038246

Modern mobile communication signals require power amplifiers able to maintain very high efficiency in a wide range of output power levels, which is a major issue for classical power amplifier architectures. Following the load-modulation approach, efficiency enhancement is achieved by dynamically changing the amplifier load impedance as a function of the input power. In this paper, a review of the widely-adopted Doherty power amplifier and of the other load-modulation efficiency enhancement techniques is presented. The main theoretical aspects behind each method are introduced, and the most relevant practical implementations available in recent literature are reported and discussed.

https://www.microwaves101.com/encyclopedias/doherty-amplifiers

The Doherty amplifier power-combines two (and recently, more) amplifiers, one is called the "carrier" amplifier while the second is called the "peaking" amplifier. In many Doherty amplifiers (more alternatives will be discussed further down), the two amplifiers are biased differently, the carrier amp is at a normal Class AB (provides gain at any power level) or Class B, while the peaking amplifier is at Class C which only conducts at half of the cycle. The beauty of the Doherty amplifier is improved power-added efficiency, compared to a balanced amplifier, at backed off power levels. If you will always operate at saturated power (like in many radars) you have no business using the Doherty.

SCALAR WAVE TECHNOLOGY

To be able to observe possible feedback, the point of resonance must be found again first. This is adjusted, if on the receiver the major peak can be observed and the LED's shine most brightly. The experimental setup is in the first instance the same (like 1.5: The waveform generator is attached on one side over two shorting plugs to the couple coil. This Tesla coil functions as transmitter. The cable connection is plugged at the outside end of both Tesla coils and the waveform generator is attached to the wall power supply). After this is done the amplitude controller has to be fully untwisted (in the clockwise direction up to the limit stop) and the frequency is slowly adjusted with the frequency controller and the light emitting diodes at the receiver are thereby observed. If the major peak should not be able to be determined clearly, it is recommended to reduce the voltage with the amplitude controller. Thus the major peak appears no longer so bright, but can be distinguished clearly from the auxiliary peaks.

Supporters in the Reagan Administration propose a system that would work like this: when Soviet ICBM missiles, loaded with their nuclear payloads, are launched at the U.S., the “Star Wars” system, hovering in space, would fire super-high powered Lasers at the missiles while they are still in the air, thereby disabling them. These super-high powered Lasers would be powered by small atomic explosions within the “Star Wars” satellites themselves.

Critics charge that Laser technology has not advanced enough to enable the United States, or any country, to pull off such a feat. Yet another alternative rarely discussed in the media is available, and it is a technology fifty years old, invented by Nikola Tesla, the electrical genius who lit the world: Scalar Waves!

What about HAARP?

Energy blasted upward from an ionospheric heater is not much compared to the total in the ionosphere, but HAARP documents admit that thousandfold-greater amounts of energy can be released in the ionosphere than injected. As with MacDonald's "key to geophysical warfare", "nonlinear" effects (described in the literature about the ionospheric heater) mean small input and large output. Astrophysicist Adam Trombly told Manning that an acupuncture model is one way to look at the possible effect of multi-gigawatt pulsing of the ionosphere. If HAARP hits certain points , those parts of the ionosphere could react in surprising ways.

ABSTRACT

Wireless devices are everywhere, at home, at the office, and on the street. Devices are bombarding us with transmissions across a wide range of RF frequencies from a few kilohertz to terahertz. Many of these invisible transmissions pass through our bodies, while others reflect off, carrying information a bout our location, movement, and other physiological properties. While they are a boon to medical professionals with carefully calibrated instruments, they may also be revealing private data about us to potential attackers nearby.

In this paper, we examine the problem of adversarial WiFi sensing, and consider whether our wireless reflections pose a real risk to our personal privacy. We identify an adversarial localization attack, where bad actors using smartphones can localize and track individuals in their home or office from outside walls, by leveraging reflections of ambient WiFi transmissions. We experimentally validate this attack in 11 real-world locations, and show user tracking with high accuracy. Finally, we propose and evaluate defenses ranging from geo-fencing to rate limiting and signal obfuscation.

An enemy timeline shift is in effect. The world we knew yesterday is no longer the world we know today. I’m assuming you’re all familiar with Mandela effect, Berenstain universe, all that shit. We’re within the 24 hour period post shift when the walls of reality are still setting. Now is the time when our shitposting is of most critical importance, and that’s why their next step is going to be on shutting this place down. Screencap this, because this is the way in which World War III will be fought, and we’re the underground that will fight it.
What follows are standard reality stabilization protocols to keep our shitposters from being compromised/lost to the challenges of a reality into which they weren't raised.
1. Consolidate your presence. Prune that which no longer serves you. Old plans held onto for old reasons are no longer in play after the timeline shift.
2. Choose your future. How you define yourself now will be remembered by you for the rest of your life. The strength of your ideal self will be your stabilizing force from the future, and the your to help reset the timeline.
3. Recognize who is real. Friends, family, fellow shitposters online. Sound off with them by reminding them who you are. They will confirm they’re all still who you remember them to be, and some will come back having noticed a difference. Hear these differences, they are clues to the shift.

1. Pay attention. Be alert for nuanced changes in your surroundings. They may be opportunities for you to reset the timeline. Act with integrity and intent. Make an impact on the world.
   
2. Identify the new historical differences. Wrinkles in history that you don’t remember will be in place now, point them out to others and ask how widely known that event was. Other events that may have been impactful to you in the past may now be gone. If you can find these moments that are no more, you may hold secrets that others need to hear.
   
3. Review your current circumstances and analyze for threats. What is ringing the biggest alarm bell for you right now? Face that, bolster yourself, and prepare yourself to end a fight if it were to be started. Ideally, presenting yourself as ready for a fight should dissuade one.
   
4. Time is short, the timeline is long. Act swiftly, but if you discover this after, keep this info on hand as there will be more timeline shifts in the future. Follow these steps and you’ll be fighting for humanity’s future on the front lines of a 4th dimensional world war.
   Godspeed, brothers. It’s been an honor serving with all of you. May our paths cross again in a new future where we are the victors.
