A Guide for Reporting Integrated Disease Surveillance and Response Data in National Public Health Bulletins

Details

• Description:
  Communicating information to reduce public health threats is a function of public health surveillance systems. A national public health bulletin (PHB), also known as an epidemiological bulletin, serves as the government’s primary communication channel for disseminating timely and relevant information, including Integrated Disease Surveillance and Response (IDSR) data. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) created this guide to facilitate publishing IDSR data as articles in PHBs. The guide’s structure and content are based on the common elements of existing IDSR articles published online or in PHBs, the Technical Guidelines for Integrated Disease Surveillance and Response in the African Region, and feedback received from PHB editors. The guidelines provided are best practices in scientific communication and data visualization. Templates for presenting data in text and tables are provided in an annex.
