An evaluation of the severe acute respiratory infection surveillance system in Ireland
The SARI surveillance system reports complete and timely data. However, improvement in the timeliness of WGS data and recording of vaccination status and equity stratifiers e.g. ethnicity, would strengthen data quality. Priorities for expansion include process automation and adequate resource allocation, to enable reliable SARI surveillance at all times.
