Health
Health is a data page on the Global Intelligence desk of Glassbox Auditing. WHO disease outbreak reports, travel health notices, State Department advisories and forced displacement on a map, with the natural events and climate readings around them. An outbreak that spreads across borders keeps travellers home and can close workplaces, so it reaches airlines, hotels and hiring.

What does this page lead to?
- Flights (Travel): An outbreak that brings travel warnings or border health checks cuts bookings to the affected region, as SARS did in 2003 and COVID-19 in 2020. (moves the other way; weeks; sector scale) Source: Yahoo Finance, U.S. Global Jets ETF (JETS).
- Stays (Travel): Hotel and short-let demand in a destination falls when health advisories are raised for it, which tends to pull room rates there down. (moves the other way; weeks; sector scale) Source: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
- Labor Market (Macro): An outbreak large enough to close workplaces cuts hours and jobs, as COVID-19 did in spring 2020, when U.S. payrolls fell by more than 20 million in two months. (moves the other way; weeks to months; economy scale) Source: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
- Fear Gauge (VIX) (Briefing): Outbreak news that threatens travel and trade tends to lift expected stock volatility, as in February and March 2020; most outbreak reports stay local and move nothing. (moves the same way; days; global scale) Source: Cboe VIX index data (daily history and delayed quotes).
- Company (Companies): Demand for vaccines, tests and treatments rises with large outbreaks, as COVID-19 lifted Pfizer's and Moderna's revenue in 2021 and 2022. (moves the same way; months; company scale) Source: SEC EDGAR XBRL company facts (10-Q/10-K).
What feeds this page?
- Organized Violence (Global Intelligence): War wrecks water, sanitation and clinics and drives people into crowded camps where cholera and measles spread, as in Yemen from 2016, so deadlier conflicts tend to add outbreak reports and displacement on Health.
