Surveillance Population

Surveillance Areas/Isolate Collection
The total population of Active Bacterial Core surveillance (ABCs) for invasive disease is approximately 44.1 million. However, most states further restrict the population for certain pathogens to ensure complete reporting. The table below summarizes the population under surveillance and isolate collection for each pathogen and state as of January 2018. Unless otherwise noted, surveillance is statewide. ABCs sites collect isolates for all cases included in surveillance areas, except where indicated (*) as different in the table below.
