Download as PDF 9621 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 35 / Tuesday, February 22, 2022 / Notices information on the animal case, including animal species, number of affected animals, and clinical signs. Richer epidemiological data, including the routes that animals become exposed to SARS–CoV–2 and potential transmission events back to people, are needed to better understand the zoonotic potential of SARS–CoV–2, whether transmission is becoming sustained among animal populations, and the public health risks that infected animals may pose. Through this data collection tool, state and local public health and animal health officials will be able to use a standardized approach to collect epidemiological data while conducting One Health epidemiologic investigations over the tool’s expected reporting lifespan of three years. CDC and USDA guidance recommends state-level health authorities, namely state public health veterinarians and state animal health officials, conduct follow-up investigations if and when an animal is identified as positive for SARS–CoV–2. These officials, in addition to other state, tribal, local, and territorial (STLT) collaborators conducting research or surveillance within their jurisdiction are therefore an appropriate target audience for this surveillance form. This form involves voluntary reporting from STLT health officials conducting epidemiological investigations to enter case information and return it to CDC. This tool was designed by CDC staff at the request of STLT partners. These data will be used to describe the transmission dynamics and natural history of SARS–CoV–2 infection. Specifically, this tool will assist in collecting and compiling data to better understand the zoonotic potential of SARS–CoV–2 from humans or other sources, and the role animals infected with SARS–CoV–2 may play in onward transmission to humans or other animals. CDC requests approval for an estimated 9,000 annual burden hours for this collection. There are no costs to respondents other than their time to participate.
