SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposed information collection was 
previously published in the Federal Register on September 7, 2021, page 
50143 (86 FR 50143) and allowed 60 days for public comment. No public 
comments were received. The purpose of this notice is to allow an 
additional 30 days for public comment. The National Institutes of 
Health may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required 
to respond to, any information collection that has been extended, 
revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless it displays 
a currently valid OMB control number.
    In compliance with Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has submitted to 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for review and 
approval of the information collection listed below.
    Proposed Collection: Audience Feedback to Inform Ongoing Messaging 
and Strategies for ``Combat COVID,'' OMB #0925-0769, exp., date 12/31/
2021, EXTENSION National Institutes of Health (NIH).
    Need and Use of Information Collection: The purpose of the 
information collection is to collect routine feedback from the Combat 
COVID Initiative's two target audiences (the general public and 
healthcare providers) to identify evolving needs and better disseminate 
relevant information as it relates to COVID-19 treatment and 
Accelerating COVID-19 Therapeutic Interventions and Vaccines (ACTIV) 
clinical trial resources, specifically. Data collected will be used to 
inform the development and broad dissemination of Combat COVID 
resources, including new or enhanced message and material concepts 
(e.g., social media ads, digital display ads, out-of-home ads), and/or 
web pages (<a href="http://combatcovid.hhs.gov">combatcovid.hhs.gov</a>). Because the COVID-19 treatment 
landscape continues to evolve, new evidence-based information continues 
to come to the forefront, and audience needs continue to change, it is 
critical for the Federal COVID Response (FCR) Team to collect quick 
audience feedback from the general public (especially from groups who 
have not historically been well-represented in clinical trials) and 
healthcare providers to identify these evolving needs. By understanding 
target audience needs, the FCR team will be able to properly develop 
and broadly disseminate relevant COVID-19 treatment and ACTIV clinical 
trial resources. A change request was recently submitted to update the 
recall stimuli (still images, audio, and video or animated images) for 
questions about exposure to the Combat COVID message and materials. It 
also removed questions that are no longer relevant and replaced them 
with more relevant questions about the latest COVID-19 treatment 
options and clinical trials.
    OMB approval is requested for 1 year. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized 
burden hours are 3,528.
