One way of getting to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention page is through the redirect from CDC. That redirect is a big mistake. CDC also stands for other things, and it would be nice to have a list of links on CDC pointing to them all. How do we get back the CDC page for editing now that it redirects?

If you click on CDC, you'll notice that it redirects, but that on the redirected page it has a link to CDC on the top. Click on that. Or go to wiki.cgi?action=edit&id=CDC

(Thanks! Done it.)

CDC redirected here again. This is the primary use of the acronym and disambiguation occurs here per the disambiguation block format. --maveric149

There is some important items to fullfill :

  • Disease prevention (i.e. vaccine)
  • Health promotion
  • Health education ( divulgation)

[edit] Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System

Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System is primarily a means of coordinating data collection with the individual states. It is, according to its website, the largest telephone survey system in the world. The BRFSS provides professional oversite of questionaire design methodology while the states indivudalize the survey to their needs (with BRFSS help) and carry out the actual surveys.

[edit] plagiarism?

edit: Whoops. My question was whether copying and pasting an entire article directly from a single source (even public domain) was OK. But i guess the notice at the top of this page answers that. Never mind. :/ ~ lav-chan @ 13:40, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Clean Up

This page needs a major reformatting job. The entire "CDC Health Protection Goals" and "CDC Structure" sections are extremely difficult to read. The time line section should be expanded with a written history section. I already fixed some formatting issues, but the page still needs much more work. =D Jumping cheese Contact 00:56, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
