Healthcare Professional's Corner

County Health Departments (CHDs) in Florida are required to investigate cases of communicable disease. The Florida Bureau of Epidemiology relies on CHDs, healthcare professionals, laboratories, and other public health personnel to report occurrence of notifiable diseases. Without this timely surveillance data, trends cannot be accurately detected or monitored, and unusual disease occurrences and outbreaks may be missed, delaying appropriate public health control efforts.
