What to know
The COVID-19 response is CDC's largest global public health response to date. During the pandemic, CDC staff based in more than 60 countries supported local government efforts to limit the spread and impact of COVID-19.
Looking back and ahead
CDC's work during the COVID-19 pandemic included supporting emergency response, strengthening laboratory capacity, and improving global access to testing, diagnostics, and vaccines. CDC rapidly and effectively used existing global health programs such as the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and subject matter expertise to move critical resources that were integral to the global COVID-19 response.
