<br>What is also noticeable is that the areas affected spread to the downstream of Vast river on May 19th. What’s more, we discovered that the posts related to gastrointestinal problems increased gradually. The bar chart gives a breakdown of the different symptoms reported in microblog from May 17th to May 20th. It is apparently manifest from the graph that the posts related to gastrointestinal issues experienced a dramatic increase over the period from May 19th to May 20th. From the map, the reports are dense in the lower reaches of the Vast river. | <br>What is also noticeable is that the areas affected spread to the downstream of Vast river on May 19th.

Contents
Origin and Epidemic Spread
Identify approximately where the outbreak started on the map (ground zero location). Outline the affected area. Explain how you arrived at your conclusion.
After a quick browse around the dataset, we can find that the content of over 1M microblog messages contains all aspects of life. So first, we start by extracting flu-related microblog messages. A list of keywords was selected to filter raw data. The list consists of keywords including flu, chill, fever, sweat, ache, pain, fatigue, cough, breath, nausea, vomit, diarrhea, and lymph, which are from observed symptoms and human judgement. After filtering, there are 71939 flu-related microblog messages left.

Epidemic Spread
Mode of transmission
Present a hypothesis on how the infection is being transmitted. For example, is the method of transmission person-to-person, airborne, waterborne, or something else? Identify the trends that support your hypothesis.
Person-to-person
Considering that most of the flu is spread by person-to-person, we will focus on this route of transmission first.
