CDC National Center for Infectious Diseases (NCID)

National Center for Infectious Diseases, Home Page

Description: The mission of the National Center for Infectious Diseases (NCID) is to prevent illness, disability, and death caused by infectious diseases in the United States and around the world. To accomplish this goal, our staff members work in partnership with local and state public health officials, other federal agencies, medical and public health professional associations, infectious disease experts from academic and clinical practice, and international and public service organizations. We accomplish our mission by conducting surveillance, epidemic investigations, epidemiologic and laboratory research, training, and public education programs to develop, evaluate, and promote prevention and control strategies for infectious diseases. Priority Areas: New, reemerging, and drug-resistant infectious diseases, Antimicrobial resistance , Foodborne diseases, Human immunodeficiency virus/AIDS, Infectious diseases acquired in health care settings, Infectious diseases of pregnant women, newborns, and children, Infectious diseases in immunodeficient persons, Infectious diseases in minority populations, Infectious diseases in travelers, immigrants, and refugees, Infectious diseases related to transfusion of blood and/or blood products, Infectious causes of chronic diseases, Infectious diseases transmitted by animals and arthropods, Infectious respiratory diseases, Sexually transmitted diseases, Tropical infectious diseases, Waterborne diseases , Other diseases of public health importance

Scope: National International
