Valley fever

Data and Publications

Valley fever (also called coccidioidomycosis or ā€œcocciā€) is a reportable disease in California, which means healthcare providers and laboratories that diagnose a case of Valley fever must report it to their local health department. The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) uses data on Valley fever cases to track trends and better understand who is affected by Valley fever.

Data and Publications

CDPH provides two types of surveillance updates on reported Valley fever cases in California: (1) provisional monthly updates and (2) final year-end updates. Data are provided in dashboard and report formats. ā€‹
