Proposed Project
Emergency Epidemic Investigations—
Extension—(0920–0008), Office of
Workforce and Career Development
(OWCD), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background & Brief Description
The purpose of the Emergency
Epidemic Investigation surveillance is
to collect data on the conditions
surrounding and preceding the onset of
a problem. The data must be collected
in a timely fashion so that information
can be used to develop prevention and
control techniques, to interrupt disease
transmission and to help identify the
cause of an outbreak. The EPI-AID
mechanism is a means for Epidemic

Intelligence Service (EIS) officers of the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), along with other CDC
staff, to provide technical support to
state health agencies requesting
assistance for epidemiologic field
investigations. This mechanism allows
CDC to respond rapidly to public health
problems in need of urgent attention,
thereby providing an important service
to state and other public health
agencies; and to provide supervised
training opportunities for EIS officers
(and, sometimes, other CDC trainees) to
actively participate in epidemiologic
investigations.
Epi Trip Reports are delivered to the
state health agency official requesting
assistance shortly after completion of
the EPI-AID investigation. This official
can comment on both the timeliness and
the practical utility of the
recommendations from the
investigation. Upon completion of the
EPI-AID investigation, requesting
officials at the state or local health
department will be asked to complete a
brief questionnaire to assess the
promptness of the investigation and the
usefulness of the recommendations.
There is no cost to the respondents
other than their time.
