Program Funding Observations Unprecedented level of resources, vaccine and operations Current resources are part-way to CDC’s professional judgment level Using one-time funding is a challenge, but one worth meeting
Making the Most of ARRA-317 ARRA challenges – One-time funding – H1N1 opportunities costs Not using funding weakens argument that Section 317 is underfunded Principles and policy for flexibility, grantee priority, and using the funding prior to end of FY2010 Policy implementation involves collaboration and sharing across programs: working together
