Description:The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has collaborated with public health institutions in Central America since the 1960s, initially
focusing on parasitic diseases. In 2003, CDC established a Central America Regional (CAR) office in Guatemala which has supported work in Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Panama, and has managed projects in Brazil, Colombia and the Dominican Republic. CDC recently announced the establishment of a new regional office covering Central America and the Caribbean in Panama. Guatemala will continue to support activities throughout the region. CDC works with the ministries of health (MOH), the Council of Ministers of Health of Central America (COMISCA), the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), and other regional and international partners to address COVID-19, HIV, tuberculosis, vector-borne disease, and antimicrobial resistance. CDC also strengthens laboratory, surveillance, and workforce capacities to prevent, detect, and respond to infectious diseases across the region.
