Although all the screenings are important, health supervision of the internationally adopted child must include comprehensive screening for infectious disease. In 2008, approximately 19,600 children were adopted from countries outside the United States, many from areas with a high prevalence of infectious diseases (Intercountry Adoption, Office of Children's Issues, U.S. Department of State, 2010a, 2010b). Guatemala, China, and Russia supplied about half of all international adoptees in 2008, followed by Ethiopia, South Korea, and Vietnam. Proper screening is important not only to the child's health but also to the adopting family and the larger community.
