Background here

Purpose

We want to assess whether the installation of thermal scanners (and performance of flu tests if fever is detected) in the Finnish airports, harbours and other border controls is a good measure to prevent the illness from spreading.

Boundaries

Our assessment takes place in the moment when swine flu was starting to spread from Mexico, but no cases had been detected in Finland.

Scenarios

Swine flu incubation takes 5 days on average(2 to 7 days).
Sentivity of the swine flu test:

Intended users

   * Intended users are those for whom the assessment is made.

Participants

   * Participants are those who may participate in the making of the assessment. 
     The minimum group of people for a successful assessment is always described. 
     If some groups must be excluded, this must be explicitly motivated.

Definition

Upload a causal diagram and change the right name here.

Decision variables

   * Decision variables: decisions that are considered.

Indicators

   * Indicators: outcome variables of interest.

Value variables

   * Value variables: value judgements (usually about indicators).

Other variables

   * Other variables: any variables that link to the causal network and are within the boundaries of the assessment.

Analyses

   * Analyses: statistical and other analyses that contain two or more variables, e.g. optimizing.

Indices

   * Indices: lists of particular locations along spatial, temporal, or other dimensions.

Result

   * Results of indicators and assessment-specific analyses.

Results

Conclusions

   * Conclusions are based on the results, given the scope.
