Emerging Illnesses


The Mohave County Department of Public Health vigilantly addresses emerging illnesses, recognizing the importance of swift and effective responses to safeguard community health. Among the challenges faced, the department focuses on the surveillance, prevention, and management of emerging illnesses, with a particular emphasis on recent concerns such as Monkeypox and Tuberculosis. Monkeypox, a viral disease with symptoms similar to smallpox, requires meticulous monitoring and containment strategies to prevent potential outbreaks. Concurrently, the department dedicates resources to combat Tuberculosis, a respiratory infection that poses a persistent global health threat. Through strategic planning, public awareness campaigns, and collaboration with healthcare providers, the Mohave County Department of Public Health strives to stay ahead of emerging illnesses, ensuring the well-being of residents and visitors in the region.
