Subject: Harmonization of epidemiological data and of information on infection containment measures

Dear HDM coordinator,

Dear EU4Digital: eHealth Network coordinator,

One of the biggest challenges in monitoring and predicting the evolution of Covid-19 spread is the harmonization of epidemiological data and of information on the infection containment measures adopted and planned by different countries.

All EU Member States are collecting and sharing relevant data. However, definitions vary from country to country and different taxonomies are applied, making comparison of data difficult. Moreover, different data formats, together with the use of a variety of platforms, makes the automated collection challenging.

In order to effectively model the expected infection trend at European level, the collection, harmonization and sharing of epidemiological data at subnational level should be promoted. A coherent taxonomy, scope, methodology should be adopted, thus converging towards standardized datasets which will allow for faster and more effective monitoring of the spread of Covid-19 or any future similar pandemic. Attached you can find more info on  this initiative.

I would strongly encourage you to join this pan-European effort and nominate a contact person in your country. The EU4Digital: eHealth Network could be used as a platform for promoting cooperation in this direction.

For additional information or clarifications on this initiative, do not hesitate to contact my colleague at JRC, Mr Alessandro Annunziato, e-mail: [email-masked]

Best regards

Vassilis Kopanas
