This is the final issue of CDPH. CDPH was created in 1998 by amalgamating the Public Health Laboratory Service’s quarterly Microbiology Digest and its four-weekly Communicable Disease Report (CDR) Review. Since the Health Protection Agency was formed in 2003, it was decided that it was no longer appropriate to sponsor a scientific peer reviewed journal exclusively dedicated to infectious disease; now only one element of the wider remit of the Health Protection Agency.
