摘要
Increasingly, the national spotlight has been on the needs of the public health workforce fueled, in part, by assertions that the number of public health workers has declined since 1980. A closer examination suggests that there is little evidence to support the claim of a shrinking workforce and that the number of public health workers has actually been increasing at a rate greater than that of the general population. These findings suggest that the evidence base for public health workforce preparedness efforts must be strengthened.
