The annual incidence of coccidioidomycosis in United states is variable but overall is increasing, from a rate of 5.3 per 100,000 in 1998 to a rate of 42.6 in 2011.The case fatality rate of coccidioidomycosis is approximately 0.59 per million person if left untreated. In 2005 and 2006, the Pleasant Valley State Prison near Coalinga and Avenal State Prison near Avenal on the western side of the San Joaquin Valley had the highest incidence rate in 2005, of at least 3,000 per 100,000.

Overview
The annual incidence of coccidioidomycosis in United states is variable but overall is increasing, from a rate of 5.3 per 100,000 in 1998 to a rate of 42.6 in 2011.The case fatality rate of coccidioidomycosis is approximately 0.59 per million person if left untreated. In 2005 and 2006, the Pleasant Valley State Prison near Coalinga and Avenal State Prison near Avenal on the western side of the San Joaquin Valley had the highest incidence rate in 2005, of at least 3,000 per 100,000. It is endemic in certain parts of Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Utah and northwestern Mexico.[1]
