A NEW AND ESSENTIAL RESOURCE FOR THE PRACTICE OF EPIDEMIOLOGY AND PUBLIC HEALTHThe CDC Field Epidemiology Manual is a definitive guide to investigating acute public health events on the ground and in real time. Assembled and written by experts from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as well as other leading public health agencies, it offers current and field-tested guidance for every stage of an outbreak
investigation -- from identification to intervention and other core considerations along the way. Modeled after Michael Gregg's seminal book Field Epidemiology, this CDC manual ushers investigators through
the core elements of field work, including many of the challenges inherent to outbreaks: working with multiple state and federal agencies or multinational organizations; legal considerations; and effective utilization of an incident-management approach. Additional coverage includes:* Updated guidance for new tools in field investigations, including the latest technologies for data collection and incorporating data from geographic information
systems (GIS)* Tips for investigations in unique settings, including healthcare and community-congregate sites* Advice for responding to different types of outbreaks, including acute
enteric disease; suspected biologic or toxic agents; and outbreaks of violence, suicide, and other forms of injuryFor the ever-changing public health landscape, The CDC Field Epidemiology Manual offers a new, authoritative resource for effective outbreak response to acute and emerging threats. ***Oxford University Press will donate a portion of the proceeds from this book to the CDC Foundation, an
independent nonprofit and the sole entity created by Congress to mobilize philanthropic and private-sector resources to support the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's critical health protection work. To learn more about the
