SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) Surveillance
Purpose
The University of Rochester Medical Center, part of the CDC's New York State Emerging Infections Program (EIP), was recently awarded a $1.7 million grant to extend EIP surveillance to COVID-19 and conduct several additional related studies. The surveillance team, based out of the Center for Community Health & Prevention, collects extensive data on all COVID-19 hospitalized cases to better understand risk factors, underlying conditions, clinical course and treatment.
The collected data is reported weekly on COVID-NET, a laboratory- and population-based surveillance system, initiated and funded by the CDC.
