Abstract

Australia has had a highly successful response to COVID-19 by global standards but this success relied on real-time development of public health responses including new surveillance of trends and interventions and analysis through newly developed models. We seek to embed efficient and relevant surveillance and real-time analysis within jurisdictional responses to COVID-19 and other important respiratory infections, through partnerships with NSW, ACT and QLD health departments.
