Our work

Australian Centre for Disease Control

We are establishing an Australian Centre for Disease Control (CDC) to improve our response to public health emergencies.

About the CDC

We are establishing an Australian CDC to improve Australia's response and preparedness for public health emergencies.

By establishing an Australian CDC we will build on our nation’s existing strengths and capabilities, drive better health outcomes for all Australians, and help protect our country from whatever nationally significant health threats we may face in the future.
