Description:The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) office in Jamaica is a hub for support to Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago. The Caribbean Regional Office (CRO) opened in 2002 in Trinidad and Tobago, relocated to Barbados in 2008, then moved to Jamaica in 2018. In Jamaica, CDC provides public health expertise and strategic support to the Government and partners to strengthen the public health system, achieve sustained HIV epidemic control, and increase health security capacity to prevent, detect, and effectively respond to health threats. In support of the efforts of the Ministry of Health and Wellness, CDC’s activities include strengthening surveillance, laboratory systems, workforce, and public health emergency response capacity in the country. Jamaica has leveraged capacity developed through CDC’s technical expertise and financial support to respond to emerging disease threats, including COVID-19 and other vaccine preventable diseases.
