        <RULE_TITLE>Medical Examination of Aliens</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[CDC is amending its regulations that govern medical examinations that aliens must undergo before they may be admitted to the United States. Specifically, HHS/CDC is amending its regulations to update vaccination requirements, definitional changes for drug abuse and drug addition, scope of medical examination and revise outdated diseases from the list of communicable diseases of public health significance.   We are taking this action to afford CDC the maximum flexibility it needs to identify and respond to newly emerging and re-emerging diseases. These changes are needed to improve the U.S. Government's ability to prevent the importation of infectious diseases that are currently causing severe illness and death in regions of the world where large numbers of U.S.-bound immigrants and refugees reside These changes will reduce the health-security threat to the United States from emerging diseases without imposing an undue burden on either the aliens or the health-care system in U.S. resettlement communities.]]></ABSTRACT>
