Report an Emergency

If you are a member of the general public…

If you believe that you have been exposed to a biological, chemical or radiological agent, or if you believe an intentional threat will occur or is occurring, please call 911.

If you have a health-related question that is not an emergency, please contact CDC.

If you are a health professional or government official…

CDC maintains a 24/7 Emergency Operations Center to assist local, state, and federal agencies. We also assist healthcare providers with questions on emergency patient care.
NOTE: this line is not intended for the general public.
