From CDC to CDC and Prevention[edit]

Hi Some readers may be wondering why we use the acronym CDC instead of CDCP as the word "Prevention" is officially part of the name of this institution since October 1993. Therefore, I suggest that someone adds a short sentence of explanation in the lead section and a paragraph in the timeline in the History section. LoveAtFirstWrite (talk) 17:47, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
