CDC Activities at Home & Abroad Stephen M. Ostroff, MD Deputy Director National Center for Infectious Diseases Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

CDC Monitors population health and develops science-based strategies to prevent and control disease & disability Working with & through a variety of public, academic, and private partners Largely non-regulatory Global nature of public health threats requires we work at home and abroad

Although mostly known for infectious disease activities, CDC has major programs in: Chronic disease prevention and control Injuries Birth defects Environmental health Occupational health

1992

Factors in Disease Emergence Population growth & demographic change Technologic change Environmental & land use change Global travel & commerce Microbial adaptation Failure to implement public health measures

Outbreaks with an impact: the last decade 1993: Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome 1994: Plague in India 1995: Ebola: Zaire/Uganda/Gabon/Congo 1996: variant CJD in United Kingdom 1997: Avian influenza in Hong Kong 1998: Nipah encephalitis 1999: West Nile encephalitis 2000: Rift Valley Fever: Arabia 2001: Anthrax 2002: Vancomycin-resistant Staph aureus 2003: SARS 2004: Avian influenza in Asia

What’s changed since 1992? Although every outbreak is local, any outbreak can be global Public health now tightly linked with public security Revolutions in: information/biotechnology/genetics Linkage between human and animal health
