PopHIVE MCP Server

Featured on Claude, try it out here: https://claude.ai/directory/ant.dir.gh.cicatriiz.pophive

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides access to PopHIVE (Population Health Information Visual Explorer) public health data from Yale School of Public Health. This server exposes comprehensive health surveillance data including immunizations, respiratory diseases, and chronic diseases through standardized MCP tools, resources, and prompts.

🎯 Production-Ready: All critical bugs fixed, enhanced error handling, and comprehensive dataset metadata included.

📦 Desktop Extension Ready: Fully compliant with Anthropic's Desktop Extension (DXT) specification for one-click installation in Claude Desktop and other MCP-enabled applications.

What is PopHIVE?

PopHIVE (Population Health Information Visual Explorer) is Yale's comprehensive platform that aggregates near real-time public health data from authoritative sources including CDC surveillance systems, Epic Cosmos EHR networks, and Google Health Trends. It's an invaluable resource for epidemiologists, researchers, and public health professionals.

Recent Improvements

New Features

Implemented scrapers for three new datasets:
    Hospital Capacity: Fetches state-level hospital utilization data from HealthData.gov.
    Injury & Overdose: Fetches national-level injury and overdose death data from data.cdc.gov.
    Youth Mental Health ED Visits: Fetches national-level data on youth mental health-related emergency department visits from data.cdc.gov.

Performance Improvements

Implemented a parallel, batched initial fetch for the hospital capacity dataset to significantly speed up the first-time data download.
Added incremental update logic to all scrapers to only fetch new data, reducing subsequent load times.

Bug Fixes

Corrected date parsing logic in the analysis tools to robustly handle various date formats across all datasets.
Fixed an issue where the hospital capacity scraper was not fetching all records.

Overview

PopHIVE aggregates near real-time health data from multiple authoritative sources:

• CDC National Immunization Survey (NIS): Gold-standard vaccination coverage data
• Epic Cosmos EHR Network: Real-world clinical data from electronic health records
• CDC Laboratory Surveillance (NREVSS): Respiratory virus test positivity rates
• CDC Wastewater Surveillance (NWWS): Environmental viral monitoring
• Google Health Trends: Population behavior and symptom search patterns
