Current date -8 days to current date -2 days
Number of case-patients notified denotes diphtheria case-patients who were admitted at a diphtheria treatment centre (DTC) and their details were entered in theEWARS reporting platform
Traced denotes that a case-patient's household is identified in community, and all contacts are enumerated and placed on chemoprophylaxis and referred forvaccination
