Sunday, March 28, 2004The country's top public health agency is considering establishing a handful of regional centers, including one in Cleveland, to augment its operations in Atlanta, Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson disclosed Friday during a meeting with The Plain Dealer editorial board. Though short on details, Thompson said the regional network would work closely with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, tracking and investigating diseases in the various geographic areas. Like much of the expansion in the public health system in recent months, this idea was suggested after the Sept. 11 and anthrax attacks severely strained the country's laboratory and surveillance systems. posted by Sydney on 3/28/2004 07:20:00 PM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
