Health Protection Goals
CDC’s health protection goals address four themes:
All people, and especially those at greater risk of health disparities, will achieve their optimal lifespan with the best possible quality of health in every stage of life.
The places where people live, work, learn, and play will protect and promote their health and safety, especially those at greater risk of health disparities.
People in all communities will be protected from infectious, occupational, environmental, and terrorist threats.
People around the world will live safer, healthier and longer lives through health promotion, health protection, and health diplomacy.
