The CRF includes a set of data elements that can be used to identify exposures trends in outbreakand non-outbreak-associated Cryptosporidium cases, to generate hypotheses about the sources of infection in clusters or outbreaks, and to identify strategies to prevent and control Cryptosporidium cases, clusters, or outbreaks. Data from the CRF will be used by federal, state, and local public health officials responsible for conducting interviews with reported cases of cryptosporidiosis in their jurisdiction in order to systemically assess core exposure elements and risk factors among cases of cryptosporidiosis.
