Reply to comment by DIWhy-not in New York City health inspectors issued a disproportionate number of citations to restaurants serving Asian cuisine in the early months of 2020, finds a new study by a team of researchers by thebelsnickle1991

Super interesting. Thanks for your comment.

I visited Ireland a decade ago and iirc every restaurant window had a sign/sticker for a hotline you were supposed to call if you ate there and had gastrointestinal distress later. I really wish health departments crowdsourced data in that way.

There are way too many people in NYC for such a system to be feasible by a government agency.

At best maybe an app that just marks a map where people report getting sick or something could be feasible, but the city probably isn't the best organization to make such an app, and they probably don't have the money to keep it going anyway
