| Slide 1 (title slide): Tuberculosis in the United
States: National Surveillance System, Highlights from 2001. This
slide set is from the Division of Tuberculosis Elimination, National Center
for HIV, STD, and TB Prevention, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC), and provides highlights from the data collected through the national
TB surveillance system for 2001. Since 1953, through the cooperation of
state and local health departments, CDC has collected information on the
numbers of reported TB cases in the United States. The data presented
here were primarily collected via the expanded TB case report introduced
in 1993. Currently, each individual TB case report (Report of Verified
Case of Tuberculosis, or RVCT) is submitted electronically via the Tuberculosis
Information Management System (TIMS), a comprehensive CDC software system
for TB surveillance, patient management, and program evaluation. |
