血清监测是任何疫苗可预防疾病综合监测系统的重要组成部分。疾病通知数据对于发现疫情是必要的，并且可以及时提供疾病的流行病学概况。然而，通知往往会低估疾病的发病率，特别是当部分病例无症状时。如果这个比例随着年龄的变化而变化，或者如果病例在临床上被误诊，那么通知数据可能会提供有偏见的信息。
Serosurveillance is an important component of any comprehensive surveillance system for vaccine preventable diseases. Disease notification data are necessary to detect outbreaks and can provide timely epidemiological profiles of a disease. However, the incidence of a disease is often under-estimated by notifications, especially when a proportion of cases are asymptomatic. If this proportion changes with age, or if cases are clinically misdiagnosed, then notification data may present biased information.
