Flutracking Project

We are looking for people who live in Australia and have easy access to email and the internet on a weekly basis.

Flutracking is a pilot health surveillance system to detect epidemics of influenza

Participants spend about 10 - 15 seconds per week to respond to an email about symptoms they, or other household members, may have had in the previous week.

This trial will help us find ways to detect both seasonal influenza and hopefully pandemic influenza and other diseases so we can better protect the community from epidemics.

Participation is voluntary and your information will be kept confidential. As a participant, you will receive weekly information on influenza-like activity in the region based on our analysis of the data.
