This grant is for strengthening public health laboratories (PHLs), which are indispensable in protecting the health of Americans. PHLs provide vital laboratory testing and science-based services, integrating with epidemiology to deliver actionable information. This information is crucial for public health professionals and policymakers to identify and prioritize population health threats, enabling the development and implementation of effective interventions. The primary purpose of this grant is to enhance PHLs’ capability and effectiveness in detecting and responding to a broad spectrum of health threats, including infectious diseases like the COVID-19 emergency. This initiative ensures PHLs can fulfill their critical public health mission.

| Description: | State, local, and territorial public health laboratories (PHLs) play an indispensable role in protecting the health of Americans from new, emerging, and existing health threats by conducting laboratory testing and providing other science-based services. The work of public health laboratory systems is interdigitated with other aspects of public health work, including epidemiology. Public health professionals and policy makers use actionable information from PHLs daily to identify and prioritize these population health threats, and to develop and implement effective interventions. In order to fulfill their critical public health mission, PHLs must be capable of and effective at detecting and responding to a myriad of threats across a broad and expanding spectrum of health domains, including infectious diseases, such as the COVID-19 emergency public health response in the United States and globally. |
