Cover Story: Coccidioidomycosis is a fungal infection caused by inhaling arthroconidia of Coccidioides. Once inhaled, these transform into spherules which release endospores. The endospores become new spherules, and the process repeats itself. Infections may be mild or progress to disseminated disease, including meningitis. It is not fully understood why some people experience severe disease and many do not. It is agreed that the immune response has a major role. Comprehensive evaluation, including genetic and immunologic testing, is important for providing personalized care in these severe cases. View this paper
