Dear Henri,

HISP Uganda actually implemented the Outbreak system for Rwanda eIDSR. It
does three things:
Compare data collected daily and aggregates it for a week and if it exceeds
a threshold, it sends an SMS/email to national iDSR group, district and sub
district users and it stores the values of the outbreak for that
facility/district as an event.
It also does that for seasonal and non seasonal diseases where you look
back in time.

The implementation was done using scripts in the background. If you are
interested, we can assist to look into your implementation and generate
scripts for you.

Alex
