Description:In the fall of 2018, the Association of Public Health Laboratories (APHL) fielded the eleventh-annual All-Hazards Laboratory Preparedness Survey to assess public health laboratories’ (PHLs) capability and capacity to respond to biological, chemical, radiological and other threats, such as pandemic influenza. The survey was distributed to 54 PHLs: all 50 state laboratories and the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Los Angeles County and New York City PHLs. APHL received responses from 53 PHLs (for an overall response rate of 98%), capturing key data for Fiscal Year 2017 (FY17) of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Public Health Emergency Preparedness (PHEP) Cooperative Agreement, representing July 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018.
This report was 100% supported by federal funds. The total amount of funding received for the Public Health Preparedness and Response Program is $1,404,465. The total amount of funding received for the Environmental Health Program is $781,000.
