Proposed Project COVID–19 Pandemic Response, Laboratory Data Reporting—New— National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description Efforts are underway to ensure that laboratory data—including diagnostic viral testing data and serologic testing data—are comprehensive and readily available from laboratories and other facilities providing testing, including point-of-care (POC) testing sites for the public health response to SARS-CoV–2 and COVID–19. Ensuring a rapid and thorough public health response to the COVID–19 pandemic necessitates comprehensive laboratory testing data. These data contribute to understanding disease incidence and trends: Initiating epidemiologic case investigations, assisting with contact tracing, assessing availability and use of testing resources, and identifying supply chain issues for reagents and other material. Laboratory testing data, in conjunction with case reports and other data, also provide vital guidance for mitigation and control activities. The total estimated annualized burden is 65,936 hours. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED BURDEN HOURS Type of respondents State epidemiologist or informatics staff.

CDC will also use the findings to guide national and local HIV prevention and care efforts and identify gaps as part of the Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention’s Strategic Plan.

This research program is conducted by the Environmental Health Specialists Network (EHS-Net), a collaborative project of the CDC, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), and eight state and local public health programs (Franklin County, OH; Tennessee; Minnesota; Rhode Island; New York; New York City, NY; Southern Nevada Health District, NV; and Harris County, TX). This ICR aims to assess whether an educational intervention will result in either the development or enhancement of restaurant ill worker policies. This will be accomplished by interviewing restaurant managers and observing restaurant practices in 320 randomly selected and assigned restaurants in the EHS-Net catchment areas. There will be two or three site visits depending upon which group the restaurants are assigned to, that is, the intervention or the control group. An initial visit will be used to observe baseline conditions and to provide the intervention only to the restaurants selected to receive it. A second visit will be used to determine if the policies have changed and to introduce the intervention to the control restaurants (if it is deemed successful), and a final follow up visit to the control restaurants that received the intervention on the second visit (if they receive the intervention). Initial success for the intervention will be measured by whether three or more intervention restaurants in each EHS-Net catchment area either develop a written ill worker management plan (if they did not have one at the pre-intervention evaluation) or enhanced their policies (e.g., added provisions addressing reasons why ill workers reported working while ill). Although approved in 2018, NCEH and its program partners needed to prioritize other data collections over this study, and then delayed the current study due to the COVID–19 pandemic.

Proposed Project

    Medical Monitoring Project Facility Survey--New--National Center 
for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), 
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention requests a one year 
approval for a new information collection, ``Medical Monitoring Project 
(MMP) Facility Survey.'' The primary objective of the MMP Facility 
Survey will be to conduct a one-time survey of the characteristics of 
HIV care facilities in order to collect information on the nation's 
existing HIV care infrastructure and the capacity of facilities to 
implement the strategies of the U.S. Ending the HIV Epidemic federal 
initiative. CDC will also use the findings to guide national and local 
HIV prevention and care efforts and identify gaps as part of the 
Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention's Strategic Plan. Specifically, 
information is needed about the capacity of care facilities to deliver 
care and prevention services, provide HIV prevention messaging, partner 
with public health programs, offer services for HIV negative partners 
of HIV positive persons, engage and retain patients, offer PrEP, 
medication-assisted therapy (MAT), and substance use

treatment/referrals, etc. Information on facility location, key 
populations served, and workforce capacity is also needed to identify 
areas in need of expanded support to deliver these services. There is 
no other data source that comprehensively collects this information.
    The participation of respondents is voluntary. There is no cost to 
the respondents other than their time. Through their participation, 
respondents will help to improve programs to prevent HIV infection as 
well as services for those who already have HIV. The total estimated 
annualized burden is 618 hours.
