1180. Seroincidence and Risk of Coccidioidomycosis Infection Among Active Duty Personnel Stationed at Naval Air Station Lemoore in the San Joaquin Valley of California

摘要

Coccidioidomycosis ranges clinically from a self-limited respiratory illness to multi-organ dissemination. Based largely on skin testing from the 1940s, 60% of infections are thought to be asymptomatic. Limited Coccidioides seroincidence data support our understanding of the epidemiology and pathogenicity of this disease.
