Description:The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) established an office in Mexico in 2000. The CDC Mexico country office is part of CDC’s Division of Global Migration and Quarantine’s, United States Mexico Unit (USMU). The United States and Mexico share a land border of nearly 2,000 miles. Infectious diseases such as COVID-19, Zika, tuberculosis (TB), influenza, and measles affect both countries. In this border region, residents cross daily/weekly for work (including seasonal workers and truck drivers), social connection, shopping and medical care. Mexico is the second-largest supplier of imports to the United States, and its the second-largest export market and trading partner. Mexico City is a frequent site for business meetings, mass gathering events, and tourism. CDC provides technical support for investigation and control of binational and international infectious disease outbreaks; implements initiatives to enhance binational surveillance and laboratory capacity.
