    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) invites comments on a proposed data collection project called "2024 Marburg Traveler Symptom Monitoring and Feedback." This project involves monitoring the symptoms of travelers coming from an outbreak area in Rwanda to prevent the spread of Marburg virus. The monitoring will last for 21 days, using text messages and web surveys in both English and Kinyarwanda, and aims to help CDC assess risks and take necessary public health measures. The CDC will collect information during public health entry screenings and share it with local health departments to improve the management of diseases and the effectiveness of health-related messages.
