"The National Environmental Public Health Tracking Program is a giant step towards fulfilling one of CDC's overarching goals and that is that people in all communities are protected from infectious, environmental, and terrorist threats. By integrating environmental and public health information systems, CDC will be better able to protect the nation's health by responding more timely to public health problems related to the environment."
