Frequently Asked Questions
How many messages will I receive?
When you sign up, you will receive a few introductory messages/questions. These
questions will ask for your gender, age, role and zip code. CDC uses this information
to tailor the health messages you receive. This way, we can more easily send messages
about Women’s health to women, or messages about a hurricane to subscribers who
live in the nearby vicinity.
After the introductory messages, you should expect to receive three health tips each week.

CDC does not charge subscribers to participate in this pilot program. Standard text
messaging rates from your wireless carrier may apply.
How do I opt out?
You can opt out at any time by sending a reply with the word STOP in the body of the message.
