Outbreak of cryptosporidiosis at a day camp--Florida, July-August 1995.

.   

Abstract

On July 27, 1995, the Alachua County Public Health Unit (ACPHU) in central Florida was notified of an outbreak of gastroenteritis among children and counselors at a day camp on the grounds of a public elementary school. This report summarizes the outbreak investigation, which implicated Cryptosporidium parvum as the causative agent and underscores the role of contaminated water as a vehicle for transmission of this organism.
