Office of Infectious Disease Services

The Office of Infectious Disease Services addresses more than 70 infectious disease conditions of public health concern. Conditions include all reportable infectious diseases other than HIV/AIDS, which is addressed by the Office of HIV/AIDS.

Infectious Disease Epidemiology

Responsible for monitoring, controlling and preventing vaccine preventable diseases (e.g., measles, rubella), hepatitides, enteric diseases (e.g., E. coli O157:H7, salmonellosis), and other infectious diseases (e.g., coccidioidomycosis, botulism, invasive Group A streptococcal disease).

Tuberculosis Control
Responsible for surveillance and control of infection, disease and death associated with tuberculosis (TB). 

Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Disease
Responsible for monitoring, controlling and preventing diseases transmitted from animals (zoonoses) or arthropod vectors through disease surveillance in human and animal populations (e.g., rabies in animals), vector surveillance (e.g., arboviruses in mosquitoes, including West Nile virus), epidemiologic investigations, education and consultation. 

These Programs provide:
