The Florida Department of Health in Jackson County (DOH-Jackson) Disease Surveillance Branch works to protect and promote the health of all Floridians from infectious diseases through disease surveillance. This epidemiology-focused branch monitors disease trends and outbreaks in Jackson County communities. It is required by law to report certain diseases to DOH-Jackson.

Through our various programs designed to protect the residents and visitors of Jackson County, we are dedicated to staying focused on prevention and treatment of infectious diseases that are occurring or that may occur in our county.
