Decision support systems (DSS) in epidemiology typically comprise the following components:
Data Collection: Gathering data from various sources such as hospitals, clinics, and surveillance systems. Data Integration: Combining data from multiple sources to create a comprehensive dataset. Analytics: Using statistical and machine learning techniques to analyze the data. Modeling: Developing and using mathematical models to predict disease spread and outcomes. Visualization: Presenting data and analytical results in an easily understandable format, such as charts and maps.
