Year in Review 2019

Our infectious disease service staff identify and monitor infectious disease outbreaks in the community. Working with area physicians and other community partners, our staff investigate outbreaks of food-borne illness, as well as locate and refer people who have been potentially exposed to tuberculosis (TB), HIV, or other sexually-transmitted diseases to local services. Staff also monitor disease outbreaks in the community, such as flu and other respiratory illnesses.
