  Week 4: Public Health Response. 15 years of a dedicated EOC. When an emergency happens, CDC must respond quickly and to scale. When response efforts fail, outbreaks become epidemics and natural disasters become settings for illness and injury. CDC’s Emergency Operations Center (EOC) brings together experts and state-of-the-art technology to detect and respond to public health emergencies, like the H1N1 influenza outbreak in 2009.
