• Description:
  The Foodborne Diseases Active Surveillance Network (FoodNet) is a collaborative network established in cooperation with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Emerging Infections Program (EIP); state health departments in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Maryland, Minnesota, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, and Tennessee; the Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition; and the United States Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety Inspection Service. FoodNet is a sentinel network producing stable and accurate national estimates of the burden, trends, and sources of foodborne diseases in the United States through active surveillance and additional studies. Enhanced surveillance and investigation are integral parts of developing and evaluating new prevention and control strategies that can improve the safety of our food and the public’s health. (www.cdc.gov/FoodNet).
  
  FoodNet uses information gathered via the FoodNet Population Survey to determine the prevalence and severity of gastrointestinal illness among persons within the FoodNet sites and to summarize information on select exposures. Clearwater Research Inc. administered the 2006-2007 survey via telephone in the ten population-based FoodNet sites from May 2006 through April 2007. The 2006-2007 survey is the fifth cycle in a series of 12-month FoodNet Population Surveys.
