Cluster detection with random neighbourhood covering: application to invasive Group A Streptococcal disease

2021-10-30

Abstract excerpt

The rapid detection of outbreaks is a key step in the effective control and containment of infectious diseases. In particular, the identification of cases which might be epidemiologically linked is crucial in directing outbreak-containment efforts shaping the intervention of public health authorities. Often this requires the detection of clusters of cases whose numbers exceed those expected by a background of spor...
