The objective this analysis is to estimate domestically acquired, in Canada, while identifying data gaps areas further research. due 30 pathogens unspecified agents were based on from the 2000–2010 time period Canadian surveillance systems, relevant international literature, census population 2006. modeling approach required accounting under-reporting underdiagnosis proportion acquired through transmission. To account uncertainty, Monte Carlo simulations performed generate a mean 90% credible interval. It estimated that each year there 1.6 million (1.2–2.0 million) 2.4 (1.8–3.0 episodes related known ag...
