Typhoid -- United States
On 11 Sep 2015, a single case of typhoid fever, caused by _Salmonella [enterica_ serotype] Typhi infection, was reported to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE). Because the patient (patient A) had symptom onset 2 Sep 2015 and had traveled internationally for 4 days 60 days before symptom onset, the case initially was thought to be travel-associated (1,2).
