A revision of the 1995 Data Protection Directive of the European Union is currently in preparation. It is argued that the revised version should take explicitly and adequately into account the special requirements for personal data collection, storage and use needed in epidemiological research activities such as health services auditing, studies involving disease registries and investigations of public health emergencies.
目前正在修订欧盟 1995 年的数据保护指令。有人认为,修订版应明确并充分考虑到卫生服务审计、疾病登记研究和公共卫生突发事件调查等流行病学研究活动中所需的个人数据收集、存储和使用的特殊要求。
