Zoonotic Conditions Requiring Reporting

The Colorado Board of Health also requires Veterinarians to report diseases in animals that “may endanger the public health” (6CCR 1009-1, Reg. 8). Since Boulder County Public Health (BCPH) and veterinarians have the common goal of protecting the health of those we serve, we are requesting veterinarians to report the following zoonotic conditions when diagnosed in animals.

Please complete the reporting form for the following zoonotic conditions and fax to 303-413-7526:

• Q Fever

• Brucellosis

• Anthrax

• Plague

• Leptospirosis

• Tularemia

• Rabies

• Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy

• Any other manifestations in morbidity and mortality in animal

Boulder County Public Health will utilize this information to enhance our communicable disease surveillance system. The data you can provide us will help us to best inform other veterinarians, health care providers, and the public of potential health threats.

If you have any questions, please contact BCPH’s Communicable Disease Control Program at 303-413-7503.
