The CDC is a government health agency dedicated to protecting the United States from health, safety, and security threats. It operates around the clock to address risks whether they originate at home or abroad, and whether they are infectious, chronic, acute, curable, or preventable, including deliberate hazards. Its mission centers on preventing disease and injury, safeguarding communities, and reducing health costs through prevention. Based in Atlanta, Georgia, the organization serves the public and partners across communities to monitor, respond to, and prevent health threats. As a large-scale government health institution, it is positioned as the nation's health protection agency within the government administration landscape. Recent media coverage has noted CDC involvement in public health actions, such as safety alerts tied to infant health concerns.
