Epidemiologist II – Analytics and Informatics [ https://www.governmentjobs.com/careers/kingcounty/jobs/4672494 ] 09/27/2024 09:19 AM PDT
Public Health – Seattle & King County is recruiting for a Career Service Epidemiologist II to join its Analytics and Informatics Branch. This position will lead our Respiratory Virus Hospitalization Surveillance Network (RESP-NET) activities, which conducts population-based surveillance for laboratory-confirmed hospitalizations associated with COVID-19, influenza, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) among children and adults. 

Our Analytics & Informatics (A&I) branch collects, manages, analyzes and interprets the Department’s communicable disease and immunization data, including COVID-19 and other respiratory viruses, general communicable diseases (e.g., vaccine preventable diseases, enterics, foodborne illness, zoonotics, healthcare associated infections), acute and chronic hepatitis, and emerging diseases. The A&I branch is a cohesive team of epidemiologists and informatics specialists dedicated to providing data to support public health decision-making. This position would fit within the surveillance team to help improve respiratory hospitalization surveillance and would be critical in informing seasonal respiratory guidance. 

*Commitment To Equity and Social Justice*
Named after Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., one of the most influential civil rights leaders in our nation's history, King County is a vibrant international community with residents that represent countries from around the world. It is a region with increasing diversity that cherishes the traditions of many cultures.
 
The county government has a deep commitment to equity and social justice and advancing practices, strategies, and policies that promote fairness, justice, and opportunity for all – in our workplaces and our communities. With this commitment, King County has adopted a pro-equity agenda to advance regional change and ensure that residents from all communities are incorporated into our emergency planning and public outreach efforts.
 
We recognize that structural racism consists of principles and practices that cause and justify an inequitable distribution of rights, opportunities, and experiences across racial groups. Since declaring Racism is a Public Health Crisis in June 2020, King County and Public Health committed to being intentionally anti-racist and accountable to Black, Indigenous and People of Color communities.
