Abt To Continue Operating v-safe COVID-19 Pregnancy Registry Call Center—Wins 3-year, $10M Award from CDC

General News

Summary

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) awarded Abt Associates a three-year, $10 million contract to continue to operate the v-safe COVID-19 Vaccine Pregnancy Registry, which collects data from pregnant, vaccinated people to monitor potential safety issues. After registration, vaccinated persons receive a series of text messages at specified intervals asking them to report symptoms via a web survey. “This award builds on our previous one-year v-safe Pregnancy Registry contract,” notes Project Director Gabriella Newes-Adeyi. “It’s critical to get the data because pregnant people aren’t part of clinical trials to determine efficacy and safety. We partner with clients and communities to advance equity and innovation—from creating scalable digital solutions and combatting infectious disease, to mitigating climate change and evaluating programs for measurable social impact—and more.
