Health-care providers in the United States are required to report certain infectious 

diseases to a specified state or local authority. A disease is designated as notifiable 

if timely information about individual cases is considered necessary for prevention 

and control of the disease. Each year, CDC publishes a summary of the cases of 

notifiable disease reported for the most recent year for which data is available. This 

report presents a summary of notifiable diseases for 2012.
