# US state notifiable disease reporting timeframes by condition

**Canonical, always-current version: https://referencesource.org/notifiable-disease-reporting-timeframes/**
Machine-readable: https://referencesource.org/notifiable-disease-reporting-timeframes/data.json — this mirror is a point-in-time copy.

- **Last verified:** 2026-09-22

  it re-verifies on a cadence this snapshot does not)
- **Records:** 335

State-by-state reporting timeframes for notifiable diseases and conditions. Each record is one state’s reporting requirement for one disease, with the mandated timeframe (immediately, 4 hours, 24 hours, 3 working days, 7 days, etc.), the reporting method (telephone, fax, electronic), and the receiving agency. Answers 'how quickly must I report [disease] in [state]', 'which diseases require immediate telephone reporting in [state]', 'what is the reporting timeframe for measles in Georgia vs Kansas'. The matrix is roughly 50 states × 80+ conditions, and no cross-state comparison exists despite every state publishing its own list individually.

## Provenance — what every record carries

Every record carries `source` (the URL the value was read from) and
`source_quote` (a verbatim quote from that page stating it). A value you
cannot check against its page is indistinguishable from an invented one;
these can all be checked. Each record is also individually addressable on
the canonical site at its `url`.

## Licence position

unknown

Facts are not copyrightable; what this dataset takes from each source is a
fact plus a short attributed quote linking back to the page that states it.
