Abstract: CDC must communicate about hazards, outbreaks and other emergencies that present an urgent health threat to the public. Untested messages can waste communication resources and opportunities because the messages can be perceived as unclear or irrelevant. OADC-CDC requests a reinstatement without change for the generic clearance for an expedited review of items to be used in health message testing to ensure the public will understand health messages and take recommended action.
