Data collection for CHESS will build on existing HDSS platforms, thereby making unique identifiers (either electronic or biometric) available for every individual. These identifiers also have the potential to be linked to national identifi cation systems, which is necessary for integration of datasets from households, health facilities, and laboratories. CHESS will use technological solutions to establish an integrated electronic surveillance system combining all relevant data sources and allowing for appropriate response. CHESS will provide complementary data to national health management and information systems and link to local civil registration systems, enabling access to birth and death registration and certifi cation for the population, and thus providing individuals and families with direct benefi ts. We are aware that the enhancements we propose need substantial developments in resources, expertise, and capacity, and will have substantial opportunity costs. Robust ethical safeguards also have to be considered. However, now is the moment to fi rmly state that the world cannot continue to work without essential and largescale population health information.
