On May 5, 2017, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released the 2017 Zika Interim Response Plan for the continental United States (CONUS) and Hawaii. The new, more streamlined document is cross-linked to CDC’s most recent information and guidance on the CDC Zika Response website. In addition, the updated plan includes more explicit thresholds for turning “on” and “off” active transmission areas and cautionary areas. Also included are alignment of triggers for blood and tissue safety intervention, as well as integration of pregnancy and birth defects activities into preparedness and response.
