Abstract:
As part of its Phased Approach to the Resumption of Passenger Operations, CDC will collect information from cruise ships operating or intending to operate in U.S. waters. This phased approach includes increased reporting of COVID-19 and COVID-19 like illnesses as well as a number of information collections designed to ensure cruise ships can prevent, detect, and respond to outbreaks of COVID-19. This Extension of an existing Information Collection Request is submitted to allow collection to continue for an additional three years. The resumption of passenger voyages in the U.S. has facilitated the introduction and sustained transmission of COVID-19 among cruise ships, despite high vaccination rates among both crew and passengers, highlighting the continued need to temporarily extend CDC’s public health management to mitigate this risk. This Change Request is submitted to make modifications to the Cruise Ship Cumulative Acute Respiratory Illness (ARI) Reporting Form and to request a small increase in Burden Hours (51) for cruise ships to report earlier if >3% of passengers or crew are sick so that CDC can provide technical assistance in managing the outbreak, and then again at the end of the voyage to monitor progression of the outbreak.
