This AI model was one of the first 'experts' to discover news of the outbreak of Wuhan pneumonia.

Days after China announced the outbreak, with access to ticketing data for global airlines, BlueDot's AI system continued to accurately predict the spread of Wuhan Corona virus to Bangkok, Seoul, Taipei and Tokyo.

The outbreak of Wuhan pneumonia due to the new strain of Corona virus (nCov-2019) recorded the first cases of infection in mid-December 2019 in Wuhan city, Hubei province, mainland China, when a group of people suffering from unexplained pneumonia, having previously interacted primarily with traders, working at the Hoa Nam Seafood Market, which sells live animals (according to Wikipedia). However, it was not until the first weekend of January 2020 that news of the deadly flu was published in mainstream media. And up to the present time (1/2/2020), there have been 11,987 cases of infection worldwide, 259 deaths, in 27 countries and territories.

BlueDot was one of the first health organizations to speak out about the outbreak. This is a global infectious disease surveillance organization based on data collected from humans and especially artificial intelligence, based in Canada. Right from December 31, 2019, the time before the Wuhan pneumonia outbreak, BlueDot issued a warning about the signs of a global epidemic and localized dangerous areas. This information is derived from BlueDot from data that their artificial intelligence system analyzes through reports, news, and knowledge related to the strain of the influenza virus.

The AI model used by BlueDot is equipped with natural language processing techniques combined with machine learning technology, which makes it possible to collect and analyze relevant data from available sources globally. and summarized into specific data. This data will then be further analyzed by epidemiologists. Finally, reports based on scientific views will be produced with high accuracy and sent to customers and partners of BlueDot. Such data will greatly contribute to the effectiveness of campaigns and plans to effectively prevent the spread of viruses.

Achievements in artificial intelligence technology in recent years have opened a bright future in the thorough and comprehensive application of the benefits of this advanced technology to the health field. The quality of health care and human life will be more accurate and effective.
