Mas pinaigting ng Quezon City Government ang pakikipagtulungan sa mga pampubliko at pribadong healthcare institution sa pagre-report ng notifiable diseases tulad ng tigdas, leptospirosis, at dengue.
Pormal nang pumirma sa Memorandum of Agreement sina Mayor Joy Belmonte at medical directors ng 46 na pribado at pampublikong ospital at health facilities sa lungsod, para sa mas maayos na sistema sa pagre-report ng notifiable diseases sa ilalim ng Republic Act 11332 (Mandatory Reporting of Notifiable Diseases and Health Events of Public Health Concern Act).
Binigyang-diin ni Mayor Joy Belmonte ang kahalagahan ng iisang sistema at protocol sa disease reporting, para mas maagap at mas mabilis itong matugunan at hindi na kumalat pa.
