Description:"Influenza occurs each year in the United States. While it is not a reportable disease, states are requested to report outbreaks to the Center for Disease Control. Approximately 25 states currently report case of influenza or influenza-like disease in their own regularly published morbidity reports. In addition to these reports from states, CDC conducts periodic telephone surveys of state epidemiologists throughout the influenza season. We also receive mortality data weekly from 122 cities throughout the United States and laboratory data from over 60 laboratories throughout the nation. These sources and their respective data are summarized in this report for the 1971-1972 influenza season." - p. [1]
