Do I Have An Outbreak?
Sometimes the early signs of an outbreak are subtle, and it’s hard to tell if you’re in an emergency situation or not. Use the tools on this page to identify an outbreak in your facility and help you get started with the first steps to control it. When in doubt, call SNHD and we will work with you to figure out the appropriate route to take. You can call the Office of Epidemiology at (702) 759-1300, Environmental Health Foodborne Illness at (702) 759-1504, or your assigned inspector.
In the event of an outbreak, the Southern Nevada Health District will work with your business to identify appropriate corrective actions and precautions to end the outbreak quickly.
If you suspect that you might be experiencing an outbreak at your property, please reach out to the Health District immediately. The sooner we know about it, the sooner we can work together to help end it. You can call the Office of Epidemiology at (702) 759-1300 at any time, Environmental Health Foodborne Illness at (702) 759-1504, or your assigned inspector during business hours.
