Public Health Emergency Medical Countermeasures Enterprise
The PHEMCE is an interagency partnership of federal medical countermeasure experts who collaborate across sectors to advance the country's medical countermeasure (MCM) preparedness against CBRN threats including emerging infectious diseases (EID). PHEMCE members work together to guide the U.S. government's MCM portfolio and enhance the nation's ability to prepare for and respond to national health security threats.
The PHEMCE informs the plans and actions that ensure the right balance of MCMs and improves the availability and use of those MCMs during disasters and emergencies. Improving capabilities also enhances the nation's ability to nimbly respond to unknown and unforeseen threats.
