Georgia to house National Health Museum

The new National Health Museum has been chosen to be in Atlanta. Governor Sonny Perdue says the museum will give visitors insight into the revolutions in health sciences across the world. Another goal is to inspire people to live healthier lives.

The National Health Museum estimates that it will attract between 1.1 million and 1.4 million annual visitors to Atlanta, near Centennial Olympic Park. It will be funded by a combination of personal, corporate, foundation and government contributors.
