The CDC Field Epidemiology Manual

CDC, in partnership with the CDC Foundation and Oxford University Press, has published The CDC Field Epidemiology Manual. The manual serves as a guide to investigating acute public health events on the ground and in real-time. Assembled and written by CDC experts, as well as those from other leading public health agencies, The CDC Field Epidemiology Manual offers current and field-tested guidance for every stage of an outbreak investigation—from identification to intervention and other core considerations along the way.
The CDC Field Epidemiology Manual includes the core elements of field work, such as
  • Recommendations and guidance for using new tools in field investigations
  • Tips for investigating major types of problems in multiple settings, including outbreaks in healthcare and community care; outbreaks of violence, suicide, and other forms of injury; multinational outbreaks; and suspected biologic or toxic agents
  • Case study examples of lessons learned from recent field investigations
Online access is free. The manual is also available in hardcover, paperback, and e-book versions from the Oxford University Press, Amazon, and Barnes & Noble.
