Council Supporting CDC Will Vote on Making Cronobacter a Nationally Notifiable Disease
In June, the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CTSE) will vote to decide if it will officially recommend adding Cronobacter sakazakii to the list of nationally notifiable diseases to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
CSTE is an organization of member states and territories representing public health epidemiologists that provides technical advice and assistance to partner organizations and to federal public health agencies such as CDC. The council helps decide which diseases should be monitored nationally.
