This use case empowers authorities and public health professionals by automating many essential aspects of traveler management and the follow-up procedures required during pandemics. This dynamic solution efficiently tracks traveler's isolation periods using a digital approach. Using digital forms and automation messaging allows for an effortless way to keep track of everyone's isolation requirements and communicate with travelers. Overall, this use case helps improve the efficiency of cross-border traveler follow-ups and ensures compliance with regulations, helping to increase public safety for travelers during pandemics.  

The Pandemic Cross-Border Traveler use case encompasses many distinct features that enable its successful execution. The key steps include:   

1. Information Gathering: This use case first allows for an easy means of gathering information from travelers. This can be done when travellers enter the region through QR code-accessible online forms. This stage works to streamline how travelers exchange information. 
2. Notify Travelers: The second step involves notifying travelers of all essential information upon entering the region. Travelers will receive a comprehensive automated notification detailing the exact public health measures they must follow, and the isolation period.  
3. Daily Follow-Ups: If a traveler is required to self-isolate this use allows daily follow-up notification to be sent out throughout the entire self-isolation period. Notifications will include all essential information and prompt travelers to confirm they are self-isolating as required. Automated messages can be sent using multiple communication channels to allow for an optimal experience.  
4. Contact management: Once the self-isolation period is complete, the automated daily notifications will no longer be sent out. Travelers will receive a final message to inform them that they have completed the isolation period and provide any information on public safety protocols they must adhere to. Once this is complete, the information can be automatically removed from the database or moved to a different database for future record keeping.  

The Pandemic Cross-Border Traveler Follow-Up use case promotes public safety during travel by allowing for efficient tracking and monitoring of travelers. This use case allows public health authorities to effectively identify and contain potential outbreaks that may be present among cross-border travelers and allows for prompt guidance to be given to travelers to inform them of the actions they must take during their isolation periods. By ensuring that travellers can be monitored and are aware of the current public health guidelines for the region, this use case contributes to overall public safety. It helps prevent the spread of disease and viruses across borders.  

Challenges occur in implementing public health measures to break the infection train during pandemics and epidemics. Cross-border travelling is one area that requires extensive procedures to ensure public safety while allowing travel to occur. Without a highly efficient system, following up with each traveller on the protocols they must adhere to requires extensive work. This leads to delays in sharing information, difficulties accessing information from everyone, travellers missing key details, and an increased risk of non-compliance.
