The Global Public Health Intelligence Network (GPHIN) is an electronic public health early warning system developed by Canada's Public Health Agency, and is part of the World Health Organization's (WHO) Global Outbreak and Alert Response Network (GOARN). This system monitors internet media, such as news wires and websites, in seven languages in order to help detect and report potential disease outbreaks around the world.[1]
