PRAMS Surveillance project of CDC and health departments used to improve maternal and infant health.

For 38 years, PRAMS has collected critical data on maternal-child health with the goal to reduce infant morbidity and mortality. CDC has officially halted the 2024 PRAMS data collection for the participating 46 states and the future is uncertain.

HSDO met as scheduled on February 13-14.

Data point: I heard from the SRO on a grant application that should have been reviewed last week. He indicated that they were allowed to start rescheduling study section meetings as of this afternoon.

From a journalist friend: Just spreading the word. The CDC is purging data, so people should archive their favorite CDC datasets today, namely ones around race/ethnic diversity, LGBTQ, and reproductive health. Also health data involving climate. The youth risk behavior survey has already gone down.
