New Century, Old Diseases: marrying science with public health – locally, regionally and globally.
Dear Conference ParticipantUnfortunately, due to the majority of the invited speakers and a number of delegates being unable to attend, the 2009 Communicable Disease Control Conference has been cancelled. The Conference Organising Committee believes that CDC 2009 would no longer represent value for money or have sufficient breadth of subject matter to warrant the conference being held.
I would like to apologise on behalf of the Organising Committee for any inconvenience caused, but hope that everyone understands the situation. I would also like to thank you for your hard work in preparing for the conference.
For further information please contact the conference organisers, Consec diseases09@consec.com.au or visit the website http://www.diseases.consec.com.au/

Sandra Gebbie
Chair of the CDC 2009 Organising Committee
