Abstract: RANDS (Round 3) study is designed to: (a) generate data that can help explain health-related experiences of the US population during the pandemic and (b) continue developmental survey methods research.

Emergency Justfication: This ICR is time-sensitive and is therefore being requested under emergency procedures. The United States is continuing to experience a pandemic due to the novel Coronavirus, and CDC requires timely information about the public’s experiences with the virus, the COVID-19 disease, and the pandemic response. The information provided by this data collection will allow CDC and NCHS to target its ongoing public communication and to collect valid data in future information collections. In addition to continuing the methodological objectives of previous RANDS (including the previous two rounds of RANDS during COVID-19), given the ongoing demands for timely information related to the COVID-19 pandemic, NCHS proposes to take advantage of past methodological advancements of the RANDS program to use the survey to provide information on selected population health characteristics related to COVID-19.
