Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is a key public health agency in the United States, established in 1946 to combat malaria and other infectious diseases. It has since evolved into a leading authority on health promotion, disease prevention, and health education, playing a critical role in managing public health crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The CDC conducts extensive research, provides health guidelines, and collaborates with various organizations to enhance public health initiatives globally.
