Disclaimer: The outbreak search function is intended to inform about emerging threats to the health of travellers from communicable diseases. NaTHNaC does not analyse, assess or investigate reports of disease outbreaks. As many disease outbreaks do not get reported, the absence of reports of a disease within a particular country should not be taken to mean an absence of risk. Likewise, if a disease outbreak is reported it does not necessarily imply a risk to the traveller. The information presented in the disease surveillance reports is collated from a variety of sources, including government bodies, international organisations and the media. The verification status of each report is clearly indicated. Verified reports are confirmed by official sources. Some unverified reports are included to ensure timely dissemination of information and whilst every effort is made to substantiate these reports, confirmation of their detail may not always be possible. Unverified reports may be subject to change, misreporting and may later prove to be unsubstantiated. They should not therefore be regarded as official. Where available, a web link is provided to the original information source. NaTHNaC cannot accept responsibility for the sites to which it links, or for the information found on those sites. Linking to outside sites does not in any way imply endorsement of the sites by NaTHNaC.
