Description:The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) formally established the Central America Regional (CAR) office, based in Guatemala, in 2005. In addition to Guatemala the regional office also covers Panama, Belize, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Honduras, and Nicaragua. CAR also manages projects in the Dominican Republic for CDC’s Division of Global Health Protection. Initially focusing on parasitic diseases, CDC has collaborated with public health institutions in Central America since the 1960s. CDC continues to work with the ministries of health (MOH) and the Council of Ministers of Health of Central America (COMISCA) to respond to public health threats addressing HIV, tuberculosis, dengue, and Zika virus as well as strengthening surveillance, laboratory and workforce development.
