Infectious Disease Prevention & Control

 
 
Preventing, monitoring, and limiting the spread of infectious disease is an important part of the work we do as public health professionals. We provide education, develop and implement plans for prevention and control, conduct investigations to help us understand the history of an outbreak so we can better plan for the future, and work with community partners to respond when an outbreak of infectious disease occurs.
