"The impact of the coronavirus is a compelling illustration of why we must increase funding for the NIH and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to protect public health. To support necessary advances in biomedical research to improve health, the Endocrine Society recommends the NIH receive funding of at least $50 billion for fiscal year (FY) 2023; to facilitate the translation of these advances to improve public health, the Endocrine Society recommends the CDC receive funding of at least $11 billion; and to ensure that women have access to appropriate health services, we recommend that the Title X program be funded at $512 million. This request does not include additional emergency supplemental funds or new programs situated in NIH including the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H)."
