| Description: | The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to support enhanced surveillance and applied research for influenza virus or other respiratory infections in humans and animals in China. This support aims to better define the global risk and to build the evidence for prevention and control of novel and seasonal avian and non-avian seasonal influenza viruses and other respiratory diseases in China. The scope of research performed will include, but will not be limited to, activities such as estimating the burden and cost of illness for groups at high risk for severe disease; monitoring vaccine uptake and efficacy; promoting vaccine programs for groups at high risk for severe influenza complications; and conducting surveillance for detection and control of novel and seasonal influenza viruses and other respiratory pathogens. Research activities for the prevention and control of novel and seasonal influenza viruses and other respiratory pathogens and pandemic preparedness activities will be aimed at preventing and controlling the spread and transmission within China and potentially to other countries, including the United States. Continued monitoring, detection, and reporting of these influenza viruses and other respiratory pathogens in China will advance global health efforts. These activities will assist to inform global health infection control policies and prevent and control seasonal epidemic and pandemic influenza in countries around the world. This NOFO provides an opportunity to conduct research in these important areas. |
