SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: Leaders from CDC's Division of Vector-Borne Disease
(DVBD) will host an in-person and online meeting about the National
Public Health Strategy for the Prevention and Control of Vector-Borne
Diseases in People (VBD National Strategy). The VBD National Strategy
was developed by the Department of Health and Human Services in
response to congressional direction in the Kay Hagan Tick Act, passed
as part of the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (Pub. L.
116-94). The primary purpose of the meeting is to increase awareness of
the VBD National Strategy and inform future implementation efforts.
The public is invited to attend the opening and closing sessions of
the meeting. In the opening session, speakers will describe the VBD
National Strategy and federal agency representatives will present 2023
success stories. After the opening session, invited participants will
participate in a set of interactive activities to collect individual
opinions from a range of invited meeting participants with vector-borne
disease experience. The public will be invited to a closing session at
which time a summary of the interactive sessions will be shared.
This meeting follows previous public engagement activities,
including the two Requests for Information previously published in the
Federal Register on April 27, 2021, (86 FR 23391) and November 21,
2022, (87 FR 70836). Additional information and public comments can be
found on <a href="http://www.regulations.gov">www.regulations.gov</a> in dockets HHS-OASH-2021-0012 and HHS-
OASH-2022-0019.
Public Webinar: The opening and closing sessions will be open to
the public to an unlimited number of viewers via livestream.
