Emergency Cruise Ship Outbreak Investigations (CSOIs)

OMB 0920-1255

The purpose of this data collection is to allow CDC to conduct emergency cruise ship outbreak investigations (CSOIs) of acute gastroenteritis (AGE) outbreaks or when unusual AGE illness clusters occur. The Vessel Sanitation Program (VSP) deploys to the field and conducts CSOIs to assist cruise industry partners as they respond to AGE outbreaks or events on their vessels. Under this generic clearance, CDC will seek emergency PRA clearance for each CSOI within 24-hours of submission to OMB. The data collection period for each CSOI will not exceed 30 days. Data will be gathered by NCEH's VSP.

The latest form for Emergency Cruise Ship Outbreak Investigations (CSOIs) expires 2022-03-31 and can be found here.
