Choose a health subject that you want to study for this report. You will need to find the data and
enter it into SPSS. The Centers for Disease Control website (www.cdc.gov) has some data that
might be interesting to you. Once on the site, you can search for “Summary of Notifiable
Infectious Diseases and Conditions” which is published on an annual basis. You may want to
view the data for a particular Health Issue over a period of years, such as by comparing 2011’s
report with 2014’s report.
Here is a link to CDC annual reports.
