CDC operating budget plans show that its funding for global public health protection — which includes global disease detection and emergency response and global public health capacity —
increased from $58 million in fiscal year 2017 to around $108 million in fiscal years 2018 and 2019. (And that does not include any remaining supplemental funds available for use.) The increases
included nearly $50 million more each year for CDC’s global health security initiatives.
Those amounts went up again
in fiscal year 2020, when the CDC was awarded $183 million for global public health protection, overall, and $125 million specifically for its global health security efforts. For fiscal year 2021, President Donald Trump has requested that CDC funding for global disease detection and other programs be increased further — to $225 million total, with $175 million going directly to global health security.
With its current funding, Bartee said, the
CDC is actually working in “more than 60 countries” — not 10 — to address the threat of global infectious diseases and outbreaks.
