The impact of health communication and enhanced laboratory-based surveillance on detection of cyclosporiasis outbreaks in California.

J C Mohle-Boetani1, S B Werner, S H Waterman, D J Vugia.   

Abstract

We investigated the timing of diagnosis, influence of media information on testing for Cyclospora, and the method used to identify cases during eight cyclosporiasis outbreaks in California in spring of 1997. We found that Internet information, media reports, and enhanced laboratory surveillance improved detection of these outbreaks.
