✅ Join us for the our November Spatial Analysis Workgroup Call on 11/20/2018 at 1 p.m. ET with Steven Hinojosa, PhD, MPH, CPH, Lead Epidemiologist at Hidalgo County Health and Human Services.
Title: Invasive Pneumococcal Disease in a South Texas Metropolitan Community
This research study examines the spatial epidemiology of invasive pneumococcal disease in Hidalgo County, Texas. Invasive pneumococcal disease is a bacterial infection, causing severe types of clinical manifestations, including bacteremia and meningitis. Hidalgo County is the largest metropolitan statistical area (MSA) along the Texas-Mexico border. Supporting a 2016 census population estimate of nearly 850,000, this community facilitates frequent bi-national travel, providing unique attributes towards disease transmission. This study aims to identify if certain population-level characteristics are at an increased risk for infection, so that prevention and intervention methods can be targeted to such groups.
