Few studies have investigated the feasibility of using Point of Interests (POIs) as sentinels for disease surveillance. POIs, such as restaurants, retail stores, and churches, are places where people often interact with one another and thus play a critical role in transmission of infectious diseases like influenza and COVID-19. To fill this gap, we proposed a method to estimate people's potential crowdedness at POIs and explored its utility as an early indicator to signal local disease outbreaks. In a case study in Florida, USA, we utilized weekly foot traffic data at 0.3 million POIs to calculate their weekly crowdedness, and tested local correlations between the crowdedness of each POI and its surrounding COVID-19 incidences with different time lags. We identified 261 POIs as potential sentinels that could signal the risk one to three weeks ahead of disease outbreaks. Most of these sentinel POIs provided food/drink services, ambulatory healthcare and religious/civic services. They were characterized by a relatively large group of customers and a stable patronization over time. This research provides new insights into improving current disease surveillance systems by incorporating more diverse and widely distributed POIs.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46645,"journal":{"name":"Spatial and Spatio-Temporal Epidemiology","volume":"51 ","pages":"Article 100691"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142312688","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By analysing weekly COVID-19 case data collected from the disease’s first reported case on March 3, 2020, to April 22, 2021, in 278 municipalities in Mainland Portugal, we demonstrate that the complexity of infection risks varies based on the outbreak’s severity, suggesting that a single model definition is insufficient to explain the multifaceted underlying phenomena. This study employs a dynamic, conditionally specified Gaussian Markov random field model with a novel approach to characterise COVID-19 infection risk dependencies through the similarity of areal-level covariates within a Bayesian hierarchical model framework that accounts for each identifiable wave. The results indicate that the neighbourhood-based conditional autoregressive model, which is static and based on an adjacency-based neighbourhood matrix, do not necessarily captures the disease’s complex spatial–temporal nature. Furthermore, the best-fitting dynamic model may not necessarily be the best predicting model in certain situations, which can lead to inadequate resource allocation in epidemic situations. Accurate forecasting can help inform decisions regarding difficult-to-measure impacts, potentially saving lives.
