Each week, millions of users around the world search for online health information. As you might expect, there are more <A href="http://google.com/trends?geo=US&q=flu">flu-related searches</A> during flu season, more <A href="http://google.com/trends?geo=US&q=allergies">allergy-related searches</A> during allergy season, and more <A href="http://google.com/trends?geo=US&q=sunburn">sunburn-related searches</A> during the summer. You can explore all of these phenomena using <A href="http://www.google.com/trends">Google Trends</A>. But can search query trends provide an accurate, reliable model of real-world phenomena?
