Communicable Diseases

Technical Notes for each year's data are available on the CDS website.

All data shown are for New Jersey residents.

See the Communicable Disease Service (CDS) website for more information about CDS programs, disease reporting requirements and regulations, immunization requirements, forms, publications, and more.
