| Abstract: | Abstract Health protection encompasses measures and practices that protect individuals, groups, or populations in order to prevent and mitigate the effects of infectious disease, environmental, chemical, or other threats. Digital tools and approaches increasingly shape the field covered by this essential public health operation, namely infectious disease control, as experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic. Here, we provide various perspectives and two specific examples of digitalization: infectious disease vector monitoring as an environmental health topic and food safety. These examples exemplify the broad range of topics the EPHO covers. We highlight the potential as well as limitations of digital tools to support these areas |
