The Tracking Report is a weekly newsletter that aggregates, interprets, and contextualizes published data relevant to domestic and international infectious disease outbreaks and presents it in a concise, reader-friendly format. Each week, a team of independent researchers reviews data from local, state, national, and international sources, including the US government, international organizations, and the published literature, among others, to identify ongoing and emerging public health threats. The team aggregates and analyzes this data, helping readers to understand outbreak trends, potential causes of those trends, and how they compare to what has been seen or experienced previously. In doing so, we provide critical information to the public on health security threats, sound the alarm when necessary to provoke action, and help hold accountable those charged with protecting health in the US and around the globe.
