Google Launches Mexican Flu Tracker

Ccidnet.com, May 3 -- According to Reuters, Google launched a tracking tool for Mexico flu.

Google said that it configured a tracking system for the Mexico flu trend based on the "Google Flu Trends" tool which was launched in the fall of last year. The "Google Flu Trends" can help the American Disease Control and Prevention Center judge where the flu has occurred. Google noticed that when people catch the flu they often go online to search for relevant information, and these searches can be used to predict where an epidemic may have occurred.
