Biographie

David Buckeridge est professeur titulaire à l'École de santé des populations et de santé mondiale de l'Université McGill, responsable de la santé numérique au Centre universitaire de santé McGill et directeur scientifique exécutif pour l'Agence de la santé publique du Canada. Titulaire d'une chaire de recherche du Canada (niveau 1) en informatique de la santé et en science des données, il a établi les projections concernant la demande dans le système de santé du Québec, dirigé la gestion des données et l'analyse pour le groupe de travail sur l'immunité canadienne et aidé l'Organisation mondiale de la santé à surveiller l'immunité mondiale contre le SRAS-CoV-2. Il est titulaire d'un doctorat en médecine (Université Queen's), d'une maîtrise en épidémiologie (Université de Toronto) et d'un doctorat en informatique biomédicale (Université Stanford), et est membre du Collège royal des médecins du Canada.

Background: The Canadian epidemics of COVID-19 exhibit distinct early trajectories, with Quebec bearing a very high initial burden. The sema… (voir plus)ine de relache, or March break, took place two weeks earlier in Quebec as compared to the rest of Canada. This event may have played a role in the spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). We aimed to examine the role of case importation in the early transmission dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 in Quebec. Methods: Using detailed surveillance data, we developed and calibrated a deterministic SEIR-type compartmental model of SARS-CoV-2 transmission. We explored the impact of altering the number of imported cases on hospitalizations. Specifically, we investigated scenarios without case importation after March break, and as scenarios where cases were imported with the same frequency/timing as neighboring Ontario. Results: A total of 1,544 and 1,150 returning travelers were laboratory-confirmed in Quebec and Ontario, respectively (with symptoms onset before 2020-03-25). The cumulative number of hospitalizations could have been reduced by 55% (95% credible interval [95%CrI]: 51-59%) had no cases been imported after Quebec's March break. However, had Quebec experienced Ontario's number of imported cases, cumulative hospitalizations would have only been reduced by 12% (95%CrI: 8-16%). Interpretation: Our results suggest that case importation played an important role in the early spread of COVID-19 in Quebec. Yet, heavy importation of SARS-CoV-2 in early March could be insufficient to resolve interprovincial heterogeneities in cumulative hospitalizations. The importance of other factors -public health preparedness, responses, and capacity- should be investigated.

Glossary for public health surveillance in the age of data science
Arnaud Chiolero
Public health surveillance is the ongoing systematic collection, analysis and interpretation of data, closely integrated with the timely dis… (voir plus)semination of the resulting information to those responsible for preventing and controlling disease and injury. With the rapid development of data science, encompassing big data and artificial intelligence, and with the exponential growth of accessible and highly heterogeneous health-related data, from healthcare providers to user-generated online content, the field of surveillance and health monitoring is changing rapidly. It is, therefore, the right time for a short glossary of key terms in public health surveillance, with an emphasis on new data-science developments in the field.
