Popis:	This supplemental issue of Public Health Reports presents a selection of innovative strategies designed and implemented between 1998 and 2005 to enhance the ability of public health officials to use surveillance data to monitor and respond to the epidemic of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) in the United States. These strategies reflect the collaborative efforts of the Outcome Assessment through Systems of Integrated Surveillance (OASIS) Project workgroup, a group of public health STD epidemiologists from local and state health departments and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Many of the challenges encountered in the surveillance of STDs are similar to those encountered in the surveillance and investigation of other diseases, and many of the solutions presented in this supplemental issue are generalizable to the public health practice of epidemiologists working with other diseases.
