CSTE's current Executive Board will remain in place through the end of the elections process and until the new Executive Board takes office. I would like to extend a big thank you to all of our members working hard in the COVID-19 response, as well as those who have volunteered to run for office. Your work in support of CSTE's vision, "using the power of epidemiology to improve the public’s health," is greatly appreciated.
