NOTE:
CDC is not a hospital or clinical facility; we do not see patients and
are unable to diagnose your illness, provide treatment, prescribe medication,
or refer you to specialists.
If
you have a medical emergency, contacting CDC is not the proper way to
get immediate help. Instead, please contact your health care provider
or go to the nearest emergency room. If you are a health care provider,
please contact your state epidemiologist or local health department.
