I wonder if it could be used to identify risk of other diseases? On second thought it's kinda scary. If google can predict influenza trends from searches what cant they track! I was thinking of other disease but verto was correct (if possibly by luck). This thing could predict political, social, as well as medical trends!

DAMN!
