Humanitarian emergencies, including complex emergencies associated with fragile states or areas of conflict, affect millions of persons worldwide. Such emergencies threaten global health security and have complicated but predictable effects on public health. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Emergency Response and Recovery Branch (ERRB) (Division of Global Health Protection, Center for Global Health) contributes to public health emergency responses by providing epidemiologic support for humanitarian health interventions. To capture the extent of this emergency response work for the past decade, we conducted a retrospective review of ERRB's responses during 2007-2016. Responses were conducted across the world and in collaboration with national and international partners. Lessons from this work include the need to develop epidemiologic tools for use in resource-limited contexts, build local capacity for response and health systems recovery, and adapt responses to changing public health threats in fragile states. Through ERRB's multisector expertise and ability to respond quickly, CDC guides humanitarian response to protect emergency-affected populations.
人道主义紧急情况，包括与脆弱国家或冲突地区有关的复杂紧急情况，影响着全球数百万人。这些紧急情况威胁着全球卫生安全，并对公共卫生产生复杂但可预测的影响。疾病预防控制中心（CDC）应急反应和恢复处（ERRB）（全球卫生保护司，全球卫生中心）通过为人道主义卫生干预措施提供流行病学支持，为公共卫生应急反应做出贡献。为了了解过去十年中这一应急响应工作的范围，我们对 ERRB 在 2007-2016 年期间的反应进行了回顾性审查。这些反应在全球范围内进行，并与国家和国际伙伴合作进行。这项工作的经验教训包括需要开发在资源有限的情况下使用的流行病学工具，建立应对和卫生系统恢复的地方能力，并根据脆弱国家不断变化的公共卫生威胁调整应对措施。通过 ERRB 的多部门专业知识和快速响应能力，CDC 指导人道主义应对行动，保护受紧急情况影响的人群。
