Threat Surveillance
A minimalist, ad-free global virus and outbreak dashboard.
While official public health portals are often slow, fragmented, or buried inside heavy PDFs, Outbreak Tracker provides a zero-bloat, live monitoring utility for global pathogen data. Engineered to load instantly on low-bandwidth networks, it aggregates raw chronological metrics and transmission paths for ongoing spikes like Cyclospora and Ebola. It is completely ad-free, respects user privacy, and prioritizes pure, accessible data layout over editorial noise.
the low-bandwidth angle is what stands out to me, most outbreak data tools assume you're on decent wifi and load a dozen charts before showing anything useful. curious if you're pulling straight from WHO/CDC feeds or aggregating news reports for case counts, since that changes how much I'd trust a spike number at a glance
Speed and no-ads aside, the thing I'd want to understand for something in the health-data space is sourcing - are you pulling directly from WHO/CDC-type feeds, or aggregating from news reporting? On outbreak data specifically, provenance matters as much as load time, since a wrong number spreading fast is worse than a slow correct one.
The no-ads approach plus the lightweight layout is honestly such a breath of fresh air compared to clunky government portals. Really appreciate that you prioritized raw data over filler.
Would love to see a simple opt-in email or RSS alert when a specific pathogen's case count jumps past a user-set threshold, so I don't have to keep checking the dashboard manually during outbreak season.
Have you considered adding customizable email or SMS alerts for specific pathogens or regions. That would make it way more useful for people like me who don't want to constantly check the site but still need to know when something spikes near them or in places my family is traveling.
Finally something that loads fast and skips the clickbait. The chronological pathogen breakdown was genuinely useful, especially seeing transmission paths laid out plainly. No ads and no fluff.
Genuinely useful for what it is. Loads fast and the chronological format makes it easy to track transmission spikes without wading through PDFs.
Adding an export to CSV option would make this way more useful for folks wanting to analyze trends in spreadsheets or share clean datasets with their team.
Honestly the load time is what got me, basically instant even on my spotty connection. Liked that it just dumps the outbreak data without all the extra fluff you usually get on those health sites.
