Incidence of infectious diseases and poisonings: tetanus

Due to the discontinuation of the MZ-55 report 'Weekly, daily report on illnesses and suspected cases of influenza,' which has been the previous source of information on influenza cases, the data for 2023 concern cases registered in the first half of 2023 (the status of cases as of June 30, 2023) and represent the last available data in this regard. Data on suspected human exposure to rabies concern people who were bitten or had contact with the saliva of animals suspected of having rabies and who were recommended to be vaccinated against rabies. In previous years, these data were published under the name "Vaccinated against rabies". The number of HIV and AIDS infections refers to diagnosed cases, newly registered in a given year (data according to the date of diagnosis). HIV infections also include infections identified in foreigners residing in Poland. The statistics refer to mandatorily reported cases by doctors to the sanitary inspection. The data come from the annual report on infectious diseases, infections and poisonings (MZ-56 report) prepared by the Department of Epidemiology of Infectious Diseases and Supervision of the National Institute of Public Health PZH - PIB.
