Emergency Numbers

The Center for Biosecurity is not an emergency response agency, homeland or national security agency or health care provider. In the event of an emergency please contact your local hospital, EMS agency or health department as appropriate. For your convenience, we have provided the emergency phone numbers for each of the State Health Departments. While these numbers were accurate as of the date of posting, we cannot guarantee they have not changed.
