Abstract: (2215 Views)
Global health geographic observation can provide valuable information regarding mortality rate, consequences and complications of new diseases for the epidemiologists while emerging epidemic diseases. This observation requires information resources which makes the information regarding the diseases accessible at no cost.
ProMED is an immediate reporting system for diseases outbreak and it can provide the information at no cost for epidemiologists at global dimensions. This information source, which is a basis for numerous researchers worldwide, has not been used by Iranian researchers due to their unfamiliarity with it.
