N2  - As winter drew to a close in NSW, the expected seasonal increase in notifications of patients diagnosed with invasive pneumococcal disease and meningococcal disease occurred (Table 8, Figure 1). In early spring the typical nadir in arboviral infections, cryptosporidiosis, and legionnaires disease appeared(Table 9, Figure 1). Notifications of communicable diseases received through to the end of October were in line with seasonal expectations (Table 10, Figure 1). In October, 14 cases of Q fever were reported among residents of the Macquarie Area Health Service (Table 10). Reports of other notifiable diseases remained largely stable.
