Dear Lise,

This sounds interesting and good use cases. It sounds like to 2 uses cases
here, where the first is to identify the notifiable disease reporting by
country and the second is to take stock of the different outbreaks. To me
they all sound like events

For the first use case you can use events and build program indicators that
you can use in GIS and other aggregate analytic tools.

For the second, on the IDSR demo we plan to implement outbreak management
as an event, see draft below.
