TEEN LONER KILLS 9, SELF
Posted Tuesday, March 22nd 2005, 12:00 AM
A CRAZED TEENAGER murdered his grandparents and then went on a shooting rampage through his Minnesota school yesterday, killing a teacher, a security guard and five students before putting a bullet in his own head, authorities said.
The bloodbath that killed 10 people also injured as many as 15 other kids at Red Lake High School on the Chippewa Indian Reservation.

Removing the Handlefrom the Broad Street Pump: the epidemic may have already been in rapid decline!“…the attacks had so far diminished before the use of the water was stopped, that it is impossible to decide whether the well still contained the cholera poison…”-John Snow
So… (from a surveillance perspective…) Cars, Alcohol, Suicide Each kill many more…
I got my fatality numbers from Media, Wikipedia…
Real-time surveillance is hard…
Our role is in post-hoc analysis… Leading to prevention efforts
During: Syndromic Surveillance System For Heat-Related Illnesses & Deaths
Example 2
MDH 2012 Syndromic Surveillance System For Heat-Related Illnesses and Deaths
Syndromic Surveillance: Use of data from non-traditional sources (e.g., chief complaints from emergency department visits, absenteeism data, over-the-counter drug sales)
in order to detect public health events earlier than possible with other methods
(e.g., laboratory confirmed diagnosis, physician diagnosis).
MDH 2012 Syndromic Surveillance System For Heat-Related Illnesses and Deaths
Understand the health implications of extreme heat
Discuss current strategies to prevent heat-related morbidity and mortality
Understand available data related to morbidity and mortality related to heat
Begin to assess need for real-time data
MDH 2012 Syndromic Surveillance System For Heat-Related Illnesses and Deaths
“In Minnesota, the National Weather Service (NWS) provides weather forecasts and determines the issuance of heat advisories, watches or warnings.”
“All Minnesota jurisdictions involved in planning and implementing heat response plans should develop relationships with their local NWS stationto ensure: daily monitoring of weather conditions, and early detection and transfer of information regarding
the characteristics of the upcoming event”
So… (from a surveillance perspective…)
The NWS is the lead agency during a heat event
The role of MDH injury surveillance is probably at looking at heat-related illness/death post-hoc (after the fact)

Predicting Trauma Admissions:
The Effect of Weather, Weekday,and Other Variables
Kevin A. FriedeMarc C. Osborne, MDDarin J. Erickson, PhDJon S. Roesler, MSArsalan AzamJ. Kevin Croston, MDMichael D. McGonigal, MDArthur L. Ney, MD November 2009
One of the challenges all hospitals, especially designated trauma centers, face is how to make sure they have adequate staffing on various days of the week and at various times of the year.
A number of studies have explored whether factors such as weather, temporal variation, holidays, and events that draw mass gatherings may be useful for predicting patient volume.
This article looked at the effects of weather, mass gatherings, and calendar variables on daily trauma admissions at the three Level I trauma hospitals in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area.

ARIMA: Autoregressive integrated moving average
In statistics and econometrics, and in particular in time series analysis, an autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model is a generalization of an autoregressive moving average (ARMA) model.
These models are fitted to time series data either to better understand the data or to predict future points in the series (forecasting).
Using ARIMA statistical modeling, we found that:• weekends, • summer, • lack of rain• snowfall were predictive of daily trauma admissions
• holidays • mass gatherings such as sporting events were not predictive.
The forecasting model was successful in reflecting the pattern of trauma admissions.

The forecasting model was successful in reflecting the pattern of trauma admissions.
However, it's usefulness was limited in that the predicted range of daily trauma admissions was much narrower than the observed number of admissions.
Nonetheless, the observed pattern of increased admission in the summer months and year-round on Saturdays should be helpful in resource planning.
