Communicable Disease
Communicable disease investigation, contact tracing, and consultation
are available at the Health Department relating to all communicable
diseases. Local health care providers and labs are required by law to
report over sixty communicable diseases. Prompt reporting enables
health department staff to identify exposed persons who are at risk of
acquiring disease, detect outbreaks, follow trends, and limit the
spread of disease.
Although the law requires reporting, there are often inconsistencies in reporting, documentation and diagnosis among different providers, and it is believed that many communicable diseases, especially those that are less severe or are associated with sexual contact, are seriously under-reported. For a list of Utah's reportable communicable diseases please visit the Utah Bureau of Communicable Disease Control. For a complete list of communicable diseases, please visit the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) website. |
