  21. Thought Provoking Questions Imagine that you are a public health informatics specialist and you and your colleagues have determined that the threat of a new strain of influenza indicates a need for a mass inoculation program. • What public health data would have been used to determine the need for such a program and • What data will be collected to determine the success of such a program?
