When I've looked into resources discussing which diseases are reportable/notifiable, the lists seem to go on forever and are relatively non-specific (ahem, Wikipedia).
USMLE Rx says the following diseases are reportable in all 50 states:
HepA
HepB
Syphilis
Gonorrhea
Mumps
Measles
Rubella
Tuberculosis
Salmonellosis
Shigellosis
AIDS (not HIV)
Varicella
On the other hand, USMLE Rx says HepC, chlamydia and HIV are NOT reportable in all 50 states.
The bottom line is: in terms of the USMLE, have any of you compiled a specific list of which diseases are notifiable?
Have any of you encountered any practice (or real) questions that come to mind regarding notifiable diseases?
Thanks,
