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 an extension 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.
