Cholera, the first reportable disease, is endemic in South Asia, particularly in the Ganges delta region.2 The biotypes of Vibrio cholerae responsible for pandemics are serogroup 01 (El Tor) and serogroup 0139.16,17 Cholera can be transmitted by water or by food contaminated with contaminated water, particularly undercooked seafood. V. cholerae grows well in warm temperatures, causing marked seasonality in the incidence of cholera.2... 

Developing a system to share data may turn out to be one of the biggest—and most complex—goals of the grant. The goal is to create an interoperable disease surveillance system that health care workers on both sides of the border can access. It would provide an alert system and a database with common coding and commonly reported diseases. Though it may sound simple. 

Plagne remains a rare but reportable disease in the United States, with 390 cases reported from 1947 to 1996. Of these cases, 84% were bubonic, 13% septicemic, and 2% were pneumonic (23). Most hnman cases in the United States occur in two regions northern New Mexico, northern Arizona, and southern Colorado and California, southern Oregon, and far western Nevada (http //www.cdc.gov/ncidod/ dvbid/plague/epi.htm). Modes of transmission are known for 284 of 341 cases reported between 1970 and 1995 Flea bites were responsible for 222 (78%) cases, direct contact with an infected animal was responsible for 56 (20%) cases and inhalation of airborne materials snch as respiratory droplets from infected animals was responsible for 7 (2%) cases. Los Angeles was the site of the last person-to-person transmission in the United States in 1924 (23). 

Some of the substances in the published lists of limits have been assigned what is referred to as the Sen notation , meaning that they are capable of causing respiratory sensitization . The identified substances are those in the Approved Supply List which have the R42 phrase (May cause sensitization by inhalation), or are listed under legislation associated with prescribed or reportable diseases. It perhaps says something about the uncertainty still surrounding so... 

When mandatory reportable diseases are encountered, they must be reported to the local Public Health Department, who will inform the CDC. 

Encourage the CDC to share with the states its database on the location and owners of dangerous biological materials. State health departments in turn should be encouraged, perhaps by education or training on the effects of the agents and medical responses required, to add infections by these materials to their lists of reportable diseases. 

Although tuna are considered very robust in grow-out and have very few reported disease issues, some diseases and parasite issues have been reported in larviculture. Viruses including viral nervous necrosis (VNN) and iridovirus have been reported in bluefin tuna and incoming hatchery water is often sterilised with UV or ozone to prevent the transmission of such diseases (Munday et aL, 2003 Sawada et al, 2005 Nishioka et a/., 2010).
