The Emerging Infections Programs (EIP) is to 1) detect and monitor emerging pathogens, the diseases they cause, and the factors influencing their emergence, and respond to problems as they are identified, 2) integrate laboratory science and epidemiology to optimize public health practice, 3) strengthen infrastructure to support surveillance and research and to implement prevention and control programs, and to 4) ensure implementation of prevention strategies and communication of public health information about emerging diseases. Surveillance efforts of the core EIP activities generate reliable estimates of the incidence of certain infections and provide the foundation for a variety of epidemiologic studies.
This is a non-substantive change request. All requested changes represent minor modifications to already-approved instruments including revised formatting, rewording, new answer options, and the addition/subtraction of a limited number of questions. The burden has been reduced with adjustments to multiple instruments.
