Google Flu Trends Resorts to Actual Data Because It Got It Wrong

Remember how excited everyone was about Google Flu Trends last year when it confirmed all of our deepest and darkest fears that we were doomed to a winter of misery? Apparently, using peoples’ neurotic self-diagnoses isn’t the most accurate way to track disease. So now, Google has decided to introduce a “new” flu-tracking engine. The new part? Reliable data.

Google Flu Trends gets it wrong three years running

Google Flu Trends, which launched in 2008, monitors web searches across the US to find terms associated with flu activity such as "cough" or "fever". It uses those searches to predict up to nine weeks in advance the number of flu-related doctors' visits that are likely to be made. The system has consistently overestimated flu-related visits over the past three years, and was especially inaccurate around the peak of flu season – when such data is most useful. In the 2012/2013 season, it predicted twice as many doctors' visits as the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) eventually recorded. In 2011/2012 it overestimated by more than 50 per cent.

La evolución de la gripe en Madrid

Hoy os cuento la evolución de la gripe. ¿Piensais que esto es un post de periodismo de ciencia? No lo es, es un post de la cultura de internet.

Yo tengo la gripe. Si estás enfermo en este momento en Madrid puede ser la gripe. La actividad gripal en la Comunidad de Madrid está alta, más alta que la actividad gipal en Castilla la Mancha y menos alta que la actividad gripal en Aragón, donde está „intensa“. No lo sé por las estadisticas en los periódicos o porque la doctora me lo ha dicho.

Me lo ha contado Google. Elaboran estadisticas en muchos paises del mundo, es decir, América del norte, muchos paises del América del Sur y Europa, Sudáfrica, Rusia, Japón y Australia además de Nueva Zelanda.

Evolución de la gripe en el mundo (22/01/2014): ¿Por qué no me quedé en Alemania?

Si se hace clice sobre un país, se aparece un nuevo mapa con la actividad de la gripe en las regiónes de este país.

¿Cómo funciona? Google hace cálculos aproximados de la actividad de la gripe en base a las búsquedas de ciertos términos. Compararon sus resultados con los sistemas tradicionales de seguimiento de la gripe y encontraron que las curvas son similares. Desde entonces, Google publica la evolución de la gripe en tiempo real.

GOOGLE – no es solo tu único compañero cuando estás enferma y todo el día en la cama. También es tu ayudante científico.

Aqui se puede conocer la evolución de la gripe en tu región de España.

While doing some work over the net I came across this interesting item. It is a graph of where the flu is at in the world. I advise taking a look at it since it is pretty cool. When I checked it there was no information but I figure when the flu actually breaks out then it will be very awesome to track.
