InfluenzaNet is a system to monitor the activity of influenza-like-illness (ILI) with the aid of volunteers via the internet. It has been operational in The Netherlands and Belgium (since 2003), Portugal (since 2005) and Italy (since 2008), and the current objective is to implement InfluenzaNet in more European countries.
In contrast with the traditional system of sentinel networks of mainly primary care physicians coordinated by the European Influenza Surveillance Scheme (EISS), InfluenzaNet obtains its data directly from the population. This creates a fast and flexible monitoring system whose uniformity allows for direct comparison of ILI rates between countries.
Any resident of a country where InfluenzaNet is implemented can participate by completing an online application form, which contains various medical, geographic and behavioural questions. Participants are reminded weekly to report any symptoms they have experienced since their last visit. The incidence of ILI is determined on the basis of a uniform case definition.

Presentación
GripeNet.es es una plataforma para la monitorización en tiempo real de los niveles de incidencia de la gripe en la población española desarrollada en el año 2012 por investigadores del Instituto de Biocomputación y Física de Sistemas Complejos (BIFI) de la Universidad de Zaragoza.
El proyecto se integra dentro de la red de vigilancia epidemiológica Influenzanet, que desde el 2003, año de su creación en los Países Bajos, viene monitorizando ininterrumpidamente la incidencia de los síntomas gripales en la población de hasta 11 países europeos.
A diferencia de otros métodos tradicionales de monitorización epidemiológica, GripeNet recoge los datos directamente de la población afectada sin mediación de los médicos de atención primaria. Esta característica es particularmente ventajosa, pues nos permite incluir en los muestreos a las personas reticentes a acudir al médico.
Participando en GripeNet, estás colaborando con un proyecto científico destinado a mejorar nuestro conocimiento sobre los mecanismos de transmisión de la gripe con el objetivo de prevenir epidemias, minimizar sus efectos sobre la población y mejorar la respuesta del sistema público de salud ante la enfermedad.
