National Shigella Surveillance System
The National Shigella Surveillance System is based on data collected by state and territorial public health laboratories. Shigella isolates are submitted to the state or territorial public health laboratory by clinical diagnostic laboratories. The public health laboratory confirms the isolates as Shigella and performs subtyping. This information is reported to CDC electronically through the Public Health Laboratory Information System (PHLIS), which is the public health laboratory-based, national surveillance system for infectious diseases. The system is primarily managed by the Biostatistics Office (BSO) in collaboration with Enteric Diseases Epidemiology Branch (EDEB) and the Enteric Diseases Laboratory Branch (EDLB). PHLIS is the only national source of subgroup and serotype information for these pathogens; this information is critical for surveillance. Reports of cases without subgroup or serotype information are captured by the Nationally Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System (NNDSS) .
