Specify the geographic location where the exposure occurred. Select either New Zealand or Overseas.

If exposure occurred in New Zealand, complete the Primary TA and DHB(s) fields. If exposure occurred in several DHBs list all the DHBs involved. List all the Health Districts as well if you would like the information recorded.

If exposure occurred overseas, specify the country. If it is not known where transmission occurred, select the Unknown option.

Overseas outbreaks are those where two or more people have been infected from a common event or other defined source overseas, not where a single case is imported into New Zealand and the disease subsequently transmitted.
