Every minute counts when public health is at risk.

Federal and state agencies recognize the urgent need to accurately detect and rapidly analyze biological hazards to ensure public health and safety.

The National Collaborative for Bio-Preparedness (NCB-Prepared)
responds to this need with a comprehensive system that both improves surveillance, awareness and responsiveness to emergent threats, and supports better care and health outcomes for Americans.

Bio-security depends on bio-preparedness.

The United States will be prepared.
