Public health activities protect and promote health as well as prevent disease, illness, and injury. You know us from promoting healthy lifestyles, ensuring safe food and water, and collecting data on diseases that affect our community. Because of public health, the foods we eat are safer; the water we drink is free from contamination, more babies live beyond their 1st birthday, and children are healthier due to childhood immunization programs. We'll try to monitor this site daily, but we are not replacing your medical provider. As always, for emergencies contact your medical provider or 911. We reserve the right to monitor, prohibit, restrict, block, suspend, terminate, or delete any comments, posts, media, or users that are unlawful, threatening, profane, abusive, harassing, racist, sexist, defamatory, slanderous, obscene, embarrassing, misinform, infringe on another person's privacy, or represent political or business sales. This will be determined at the sole discretion of Peoria City/County Health Department.
