provider UPDATE March 31, 2025

Infectious Diseases has seen a rise in active and latent TB cases in our area. Most pediatric patients have latent TB (not contagious). The CDC offers educational resources for families and healthcare workers. TB is slow growing, requiring decision-making in partnership with public health. Employees potentially exposed to active TB will be contacted for further testing once a diagnosis is confirmed (which can take weeks). Antibiotic prophylaxis is not generally offered to adults.
