Résumé
Coccidioidomycosis, histoplasmosis, and blastomycosis are underrecognized and frequently misdiagnosed fungal infections that can clinically resemble bacterial and viral community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). This guidance is intended to help clinicians in outpatient settings test for these fungal diseases in patients with CAP to reduce misdiagnoses, unnecessary antibacterial use, and poor outcomes.
