She has an extensive background in infectious disease epidemiology and surveillance, global health security, public health preparedness, and outbreak investigation and response.

So should this be your Chinese zodiac sign, take heart. You are in good company.  Mozart, William Shakespeare, T.S. Eliot, Rosa Park, Milton Friedman and Mark Zuckerberg were all born in the Year of the Rat. In Chinese culture, rats are used to symbolize wealth and surplus.
