In recent years, Twitter has been applied to monitor diseases through its facility to monitor users' comments and concerns in real-time.

This requires the use of standard terminological resources and can be focused on selected geographic locations. In our study, we differentiate between hospital and airport locations to better distinguish disease outbreaks from background mentions of disease concerns.
