    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is seeking public feedback on a draft policy statement regarding biosafety for outdoor large animal studies involving the bacteria Brucella abortus and Brucella suis. This policy aims to guide the development of biosafety plans that comply with regulations set by both the CDC and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) for research on these bacteria, which pose a threat to human and animal health. The draft policy is available for review, and public comments can be submitted until March 16, 2021, through the provided methods. The policy's goal is to enhance safety protocols for studies on the diseases caused by these bacteria, which affect several animal species and can be transmitted to humans.
