Prof. George F. Gao, director general of the China CDC, pointed out that the two agencies have achieved remarkable results as long-term partners in the field of public health.
Gao hoped that the two CDCs will continue to jointly promote the cooperation among national public health institutions in the world, making positive efforts for the fight against COVID-19, and getting ready for possible global outbreaks in the future.
Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the US CDC, said “No one is safe until we all are.” She said that the US CDC will continue to work with China CDC, strengthening bilateral practical collaborations, including technical exchange and researches on disease control and prevention strategies.
