Summary
The CDC is asking for your thoughts on a form they use to investigate food poisoning outbreaks, especially cyclosporiasis. They want to make sure the form is useful, clear, and not too much work for people to fill out. You’ve got 30 days to share your ideas, helping keep public health efforts sharp and efficient without wasting time or money.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.
45‑minute interview if you get sick
If you are diagnosed with cyclosporiasis during periods of increased cases, public health officials may call you (or your proxy) to complete the Cyclosporiasis National Hypothesis Generating Questionnaire (CNHGQ). CDC estimates about 2,800 people will be interviewed each year, with each interview taking about 45 minutes (total annual burden ~2,100 hours). There are no direct monetary costs to respondents; the only cost noted is your time.
Centralized questionnaire to speed outbreak work
The CNHGQ collects standardized data that public health officials can submit centrally for rapid pooling and analysis. CDC says using the CNHGQ will improve the timeliness of hypothesis‑generating analyses during multistate foodborne outbreak investigations.
