This release by Public Health Scotland (PHS) provides provisional information on laboratory reports of Gastrointestinal and Zoonotic (GIZ) pathogens in Scotland up to the end of 2021. In previous years, PHS produced separate annual reports for each organism. This year, we have integrated these into a single report. This report provides an overview of data trends and presents data observed during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic when strict nonpharmaceutical interventions were in place. Such interventions affected not only the epidemiology of COVID-19, but also that of other pathogens, including GIZ. Data presented include general trends as well as seasonality, demographics, and incidence rates by NHS health board for the main GIZ pathogens for the years 2020 and 2021. Also discussed are other zoonotic pathogens and a summary of outbreaks of infectious intestinal disease with PHS involvement in years 2020 and 2021.
