Summary of Records

This series contains newsletters from the Bureau of Epidemiology. From 1963 to 1970, the Bureau issued a weekly bulletin called the "Morbidity Statistical Report."

The newsletters include information on various matters related to communicable diseases in Utah. Most issues also include a weekly or monthly morbidity schedule, which documents occurrences of certain communicable diseases within Utah counties and the state as a whole.
