Abstract
VOLUME 90, NO. 4 In Quebec, the annual number of reported cases of invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) increased from 37 in 1984 to 124 in 1990. The increase and the emergence of a virulent strain of serogroup C prompted the Ministere de la Sante et des Services sociaux (Provincial Ministry of Health) to immunize all children aged 6 months to 19 years in 1992.

We wanted to assess the completeness of reporting of these infections in the region of Montreal by applying a capture-recapture method.
