2002年冬季奥林匹克运动会于2002年2月8日至3月16日在犹他州举行。在2001年9月11日的恐怖袭击和2001年10月的炭疽热之后,奥运会期间对生物恐怖主义的监视是至关重要的。来自犹他州和匹兹堡的一个信息学家和公共卫生专家小组在短短七周内在犹他州为奥运会实施了实时疫情和疾病监测(RODS)系统。在这么短的时间内实施这样一个系统的战略和挑战进行了讨论。2002年冬季奥林匹克运动会激发的动力和合作是克服组织问题的强大动力。在二○ ○二年二月八日至三月三十一日期间,超过十一万四千宗急症护理个案受到监察。没有发现有重大公共卫生意义的疫情。该系统在2002年冬季奥运会期间成功实施并投入使用,至今仍在运行。
The 2002 Olympic Winter Games were held in Utah from February 8 to March 16, 2002. Following the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, and the anthrax release in October 2001, the need for bioterrorism surveillance during the Games was paramount. A team of informaticists and public health specialists from Utah and Pittsburgh implemented the Real-time Outbreak and Disease Surveillance (RODS) system in Utah for the Games in just seven weeks. The strategies and challenges of implementing such a system in such a short time are discussed. The motivation and cooperation inspired by the 2002 Olympic Winter Games were a powerful driver in overcoming the organizational issues. Over 114,000 acute care encounters were monitored between February 8 and March 31, 2002. No outbreaks of public health significance were detected. The system was implemented successfully and operational for the 2002 Olympic Winter Games and remains operational today.
