The North Carolina Division of Public Health (DPH) has informed the NCMS that it has updated information in memos that were originally sent to physicians and other providers in 2009 about DPH surveillance of vector borne diseases. The memos are available on the NCMS website, https://www.compassionatecarenc.org/. DPH updates information about these diseases yearly.  NCMS wishes to thank State Public Health Veterinarian Carl Williams, DVM, DACVPM, for this update.
