The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has collaborated with public health institutions in Central America since the 1960s. Through these collaborations CDC has been able to address the region’s priority public health burdens from malaria to influenza. These alliances have increased from a single field station in El Salvador for medical entomology and parasitology to a regional office located in Guatemala that serves the entire region. CDC’s current programs with activities in El Salvador include HIV/AIDS, the Field Epidemiology Training Program (FETP), and the Influenza Preparedness, Detection, and Response program.
