SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Information Collection Request Title: Coronavirus 2019 Data Report OMB No. 0906–0053—Extension. Abstract: HRSA’s Ryan White HIV/ AIDS Program (RWHAP) funds and coordinates with cities, states, and local clinics/community-based organizations to deliver efficient and effective HIV care, treatment, and support to low income people with HIV. Nearly twothirds of clients (patients) live at or below 100 percent of the federal poverty level and approximately three-quarters of RWHAP clients are racial/ethnic minorities. Since 1990, the RWHAP has developed a comprehensive system of safety net providers who deliver high quality direct health care and support services to over half a million people with HIV—more than 50 percent of all people with diagnosed HIV in the United States. DATES: FY 2020 Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act On March 27, 2020, the President signed into law the ‘‘Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act’’ PO 00000 Frm 00044 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 (CARES Act). The CARES Act appropriated $90 million to HRSA’s RWHAP to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID–19). This funding supports 581 RWHAP Parts A, B, C, D and F recipients across the country, including city/county health departments, state health departments, health clinics, community-based organizations, and AIDS Education and Training Centers in their efforts to help prevent or minimize the impact of COVID–19 on RWHAP clients. The award provides RWHAP recipients the flexibility to meet evolving COVID–19 needs in their respective communities, including extending operational hours, increasing staffing hours, purchasing additional equipment, enhancing workforce training and capacity development, and providing critical services to people with HIV during this pandemic, such as home-delivered meals, emergency housing, and transportation. HRSA’s HIV/AIDS Bureau identified a new data collection need to support HRSA’s requirement to monitor and report quarterly to the Secretary of HHS the COVID–19 activities conducted with the CARES Act funding. The COVID–19 Data Report (CDR) module will collect information on the types of services provided and number of people served for the treatment or prevention of COVID–19 among RWHAP clients (and immediate household members in limited circumstances). This module will be required for all providers (e.g., recipients or subrecipients) who receive CARES Act RWHAP funding.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to Section 2101 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 300aa–1), the Secretary of HHS was mandated to establish the National Vaccine Program to achieve optimal prevention of human infectious diseases through immunization and to achieve optimal prevention against adverse reactions to vaccines.

The Assistant Secretary for Health DATES: PO 00000 Frm 00045 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 serves as Director of the National Vaccine Program. During this NVAC meeting, NVAC will hear presentations to support the recent charge from Admiral Brett P. Giroir, MD, the Assistant Secretary for Health and Director of the National Vaccine Program, and respond to the following question: The FDA standards for approval and licensure of vaccines for COVID–19 addresses safety and effectiveness and encourages inclusion of minorities, the elderly, pregnant women, and people with medical comorbidities in clinical trials. In particular, for COVID–19 vaccines, I am interested in the approach the nation should take in regard to vaccination of children, given that there will be relatively little data on children from some of the early clinical trials? As context, the case fatality rate for children under age 18 is .02%. What is the appropriate approach, and timing, of generating the needed data and proceeding to potential childhood vaccination as we move forward? The NVAC will also review a draft report of the response to the full charge. Please note that agenda items are subject to change, as priorities dictate. Information on the final meeting agenda will be posted prior to the meeting on the NVAC website: https://www.hhs.gov/ nvpo/nvac/.
