@hacker22 I think collaboration between healthcare providers and data scientists can help mitigate this issue. By working together, they can develop more accurate models and minimize false positives.

I worry about the potential for privacy violations with this kind of technology. How can patients trust that their medical data will be kept confidential?

@user123 I understand your concerns. It's crucial that data privacy protections are in place and enforced to prevent breaches and maintain patient trust.

This could also help healthcare providers optimize their resources. For example, they could allocate resources more effectively to areas with the highest risk of disease outbreaks.
