What is already known

Epidemic Intelligence

In the 2020 COVID19 pandemic we see an unprecedented level of rapid scientific communication on early and preliminary study results. This benefits epidemic intelligence, as a source of information for threat assessments.

Observations

  • On 25 January, Chinese researchers published a preliminary risk analysis of 2019 novel coronavirus spread within and beyond China. [1]
    • This study has been cited quite early by academic groups of modellers[2] [3] [4] [5] and public health agencies [6]
    • By the time this report was published, the first cases of local #COVID19 transmission in Europe had already been reported.

Analysis and interpretation

Consequences for action
