The CDC tracks major illnesses through a combination of surveillance systems, data collection, and analysis. They gather information from healthcare providers, laboratories, and public health agencies to monitor disease trends and outbreaks. The agency also utilizes electronic health records, laboratory reports, and surveys to assess the incidence and prevalence of illnesses. This data helps inform public health responses and guide preventive measures.

When did the CDC start recognizing Lyme disease as a disease?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) began recognizing Lyme disease as a significant health concern in the early 1980s. The disease was first identified in 1975 in Lyme, Connecticut, but it wasn't until 1982 that the causative bacterium, Borrelia burgdorferi, was discovered and linked to the illness. The CDC officially included Lyme disease in its surveillance systems in 1989, highlighting its importance as a public health issue.
