Funded Activity Summary

The National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System contains approximately 4 million records of infectious disease notifications made since 1991. We will use these data to describe trends in notifiable infectious diseases in Australia, determine the impact of interventions such as immunisation, and develop algorithms to identify infectious disease outbreaks as early as possible. This information will be used to help minimise the burden of infectious diseases in Australia in the future.
