Atlanta Selected as Site for National Health Museum

The National Health Museum, which has displayed its collection on
the Internet since it was founded in 1997 and at events it
sponsored, has selected Atlanta for its new home and plans to
build a 190,000-square-foot museum in the city, reports Cox News
Service.

The organization said it chose Atlanta because it is already
home to several major health institutions, including the American
Cancer Society, the Arthritis Foundation, and the Centers for
Disease Control, the news service reports.

Museum organizers plan to conduct a fund-raising drive to seek
money for the new facility.
