Is HIV/AIDS a mandatory reporting disease?


Specifically in Illinois, and also, what other diseases are we obligated to report?

Here is a list of ALL diseaes that are reportable in Illinois
http://www.idph.state.il.us/health/infec...

HIV and AIDS are separately reportable conditions. They are low-priority* reportables; state public health department needs to be notified within 7 days of new cases.

*high priority reportables are things like the plague or anthrax, which need to be reported immediately upon notification.

And for those of you who are unfamiliar with what it means to have a disease reported to the public health department, check out this Best Answer I gave a while back. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...
