In order to control the introduction, transmission, and spread of communicable diseases, such as COVID-19, into the United States, the collection of traveler contact information helps ensure that CDC and state and local health authorities are able to identify and locate persons arriving in, or transmitting through, the United States from a foreign country who may have been exposed to a communicable disease abroad. State, local, and territorial public health departments can use this information to connect with travelers who arrive in their jurisdictions infectious with or exposed to a communicable disease in order to monitor travelers for symptoms as needed. This Extension ICR is submitted to permit the continued collection of data from travelers to effectively make and enforce regulations necessary to prevent the spread of communicable diseases in the United States.
