CDC Awards Abt Associates Additional Contracts to Evaluate Effectiveness of H1N1 Vaccine
Date:3/5/2010

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., March 5 /PRNewswire/ -- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has awarded Abt Associates two new contracts to evaluate the effectiveness of the H1N1 vaccine among health care workers and children under the age of 18. In December 2009 the CDC awarded the company a related contract to evaluate the vaccine's effectiveness among pregnant women.  All three groups are considered high risk populations by CDC either because of increased risk for complications or because of increased risk of contracting or spreading the disease.  The combined value of all 3 contracts total $12.8 million.

As with the original contract, Abt Associates will prepare detailed protocols for the studies, identify and enroll study participants, coordinate testing of participants for infection with influenza viruses, develop and maintain all study databases, and assist the CDC with data analysis.

To carry out this work Abt is partnering with two distinguished health services researchers: Adrienne G. Randolph
