Abstract
The growing field of digital disease detection, or epidemic intelligence, attempts to improve timely detection and awareness of infectious disease (ID) events. Early detection remains an important priority and some researchers believe that ID emergence risks can be anticipated through surveillance of their drivers. This paper presents approaches to driver surveillance, gaps in the current literature, and a scientific framework for the creation of a digital warning system.
