The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announces CDC-RFA-DD17-1702 for the ten (10) eligible/non-responsive jurisdictions of CDC-RFA-DD16-1605 to apply for fiscal year FY2017 funds to establish, enhance, and maintain rapid population-based surveillance of microcephaly and other adverse outcomes (especially central nervous system (CNS) defects) possibly linked to Zika virus infection during pregnancy using an active case-finding methodology; participate in centralized pooled clinical and surveillance data projects; ensure affected infants and families are referred to services; and assess...
