CURE Quote
among those who have overt disease, there are several disease stages that may not be included in
a surveillance system:
Cases reported
Cases diagnosed but not reported
Cases who seek medical attention but were not diagnosed
Cases who were symptomatic but did not seek medical attention
Cases who were not symptomatic
– Some have symptoms but do not seek medical attention.
– Some do get medical attention but do not get diagnosed or get misdiagnosed.
– Some get diagnosed but do not get reported.— S. Straif-Bourgeois et al., Handbook of Epidemiology, 2013-
