• Description:
  The International Influenza Laboratory Capacity Review Tool (hereafter referred to as the ‘Laboratory Capacity Review Tool’ or the ‘Tool’) was developed in 2009 through a collaboration between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Association of Public Health Laboratories (APHL). It is a data gathering tool designed for assessing the capabilities and capacities of national influenza laboratories, with an emphasis on influenza diagnostics. Information collected through this tool can be used to identify a laboratory’s strengths as well as opportunities for improvement across a wide variety of functions. Assessments are offered to countries with which CDC has cooperative agreements. Participation by partner countries is voluntary.
