Major Public Health Reorganization in 2005: Embracing Comprehensive Disease Surveillance

DESCRIPTION

In late 2005, significant restructuring occurred in public health, integrating all communicable disease surveillance alongside environmental health initiatives. HIV/STD prevention and care were reunited with surveillance efforts, incorporating hepatitis data for a more complete overview.

The reorganization has set the foundation for future improvements anticipated in 2008, although the transition presents challenges for surveillance staff.
