Public Health Widgets

Site: CDC Widgets and Gadgets http://www.cdc.gov/widgets/

Review:
Include the following in your blog posting review: 

CDC Widgets has a fairly long list of available widgets covering many topics, from the flu to asthma to winter weather health and safety. All of the widgets are free to use on your website. You just need to copy and embed the code.

Using the CDC widgets site was quite easy. I found the widget I wanted, copied the code, and embedded it into my website.

Recommended Use for Public Health Messaging:
Widgets can be used in various ways for public health messaging. To name just a few, they can help people find places, like testing sites for sexually transmitted infections, help people calculate BMI, and link to other sites with more information.
