ANNOUNCEMENT

We are very pleased to announce the introduction of the web-based online submission system from February 12, 2013 through our website.

Submission

There are no page charges for JJID. Manuscripts are accepted from any institution in any country. An original and two copies, each with a complete set of figures and tables, should be submitted.

The corresponding author should indicate in a covering letter:

(1) that the manuscript is being submitted for consideration for publication in JJID.

(2) that a manuscript with substantially the same content has not been submitted or published elsewhere.

(3) that all the authors have made contributions to the study described in the manuscript and are responsible for its content.

No change of author(s) is permitted after acceptance for publication.

They should be sent to:

Editorial Office,
The Japanese Journal of Infectious Diseases,
The National Institute of Infectious Diseases,
Toyama 1-23-1, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo 162-8640, Japan

Papers in English are acceptable. Authors who are unsure of proper English usage should have their manuscripts checked by someone proficient in English. Each manuscript will be reviewed by two or more members of the Editorial Board or ad hoc referees for its acceptability in terms of scientific quality and originality. The Journal reserves the privilege of returning the manuscript to the author for revision to make it suitable for publication in the journal.
