Hepatitis C and Sexually Transmitted Infections Surveillance & Epidemiology

About Us

The Surveillance and Epidemiology Section of the Community Acquired Infections Division is responsible for routine and enhanced STI and community-acquired Hepatitis C surveillance, epidemiology and research. We work closely with our colleagues to ensure an integrated approach to surveillance and research. We provide data, analysis and interpretation to inform and support prevention, policy and programming activities related to STIs and community-acquired Hepatitis C. In turn, our surveillance and research priorities are guided by those program areas. This section contributes to broader initiatives within the Centre for Communicable Diseases and Infection Control for enhanced surveillance of populations vulnerable to sexually-transmitted and blood-borne infections, and we collaborate with provincial and territorial representatives, international agencies and other partners to improve behavioural and disease surveillance for public health action.
