• Description:
  As MMWR celebrates its 50th year at CDC, a review of MMWR articles provides evidence that CDC's global activities have become firmly established as part of the agency's core work. Electronic searching of MMWR articles for the words "international" or "global" found only five articles mentioning them in 1983, compared with 130 articles in 2010. CDC responded to five international requests for epidemiologic assistance ("Epi-Aids") before MMWR came to CDC in 1961 and to 534 such requests through January 2011.
