Context: The Bureau of Communicable Disease at the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene receives an average of more than 1000 reports daily via electronic laboratory reporting.

Program: We modified our outbreak detection approach using the prospective space-time permutation scan statistic in SaTScan.
