Disease Surveillance

The Douglas County Health Department conducts disease surveillance to control the spread of communicable (contagious) disease. These diseases can be spread in a variety of ways: person to person, contact with animals, or eating contaminated food and water. This includes serious diseases such as E. coli, Salmonella, and rabies.

The Douglas County Health Department now has a single online form for you to report animal encounters, illnesses, and outbreaks. Not sure if you need to report something? Let us know if you experience any of the following:

  • An illness that must be reported according to state statute
  • A possible outbreak (2 or more sick individuals from different households)
  • A bite or scratch by a wild or domestic animal (human victim)
  • A domestic pet that was bitten or scratched by a wild animal
Report an Illness, Outbreak, or Animal Encounter
