CDC's Inaugural Report on Public Health Emergency Preparedness
The CDC's Coordinating Office for Terrorism Preparedness and Emergency Response (COTPER) has released its inaugural report on public health emergency preparedness. The report, Public Health Preparedness: Mobilizing State by State, highlights the progress that has been made in state and local preparedness and response, identifies preparedness challenges facing public health departments, and outlines CDCs efforts to address those challenges.
Designed to increase accountability regarding the countrys investment in preparedness activities, the report presents national data as well as state-specific snapshots for all 50 states and four directly funded localities: Chicago; Los Angeles County; New York City; and Washington, D.C.
The complete report and state-by-state snapshots can be found at
