July 1, 2016, marks the 70th anniversary of the establishment of CDC. Since the agency's launch as the Communicable Disease Center on July 1, 1946, CDC's primary mission has been improving public health in the United States and around the world through prevention and preparedness. In the seven decades since CDC's founding, the agency has grown in size and mission and is recognized as the nation's premiere health promotion, disease prevention, and emergency preparedness agency, and a global leader in public health. CDC's mission has progressed beyond communicable disease control and now encompasses noninfectious diseases, injury prevention, and environmental and occupational health.
2016 年 7 月 1 日，是美国疾病预防控制中心（CDC）成立 70 周年纪念日。自 1946 年 7 月 1 日作为传染病中心成立以来，该机构的主要任务一直是通过预防和准备来改善美国和全球的公共卫生。自 CDC 成立以来的 70 年中，该机构的规模和任务不断扩大，并被公认为国家首屈一指的健康促进、疾病预防和应急准备机构，以及全球公共卫生的领导者。CDC 的使命已经超越了传染病控制，现在涵盖了非传染性疾病、伤害预防以及环境和职业健康。
