Title of Investigation:	Identifying Sources of and Risk Factors for Harmful Algal Bloom Exposures through Poison Control Center Follow-up Questionnaires – United States, 2019.
Purpose of Investigation: (Use as much space as necessary)	Poison control centers (PCCs) have seen increases in HABs-related reported exposures in 2019; there have been more than 150 HABs related exposures from March 1 to April 30. Federal, state, and local public health are aware of the public health threat, but more contextual information is needed about HABs exposures to understand the problem including how individuals were exposed, medical treatments recommended or conducted on the exposed individuals, and awareness of health communication messages surrounding HABs exposures. Information collected will inform incident response, public health communication, and outreach activities to reduce HABs exposures.
