Subcommittee's will be responsible for reviewing existing appropriate literature in the CDC database and determine additional searches that are required. In order to summarize data Dr. Lee will develop a draft table to distill data. A draft of the table will be shared with Dr. Haskell and Dr. Nelson prior to distribution to the entire Committee. Each subcommittee will have a CDC liaison to support further data requests. Initial requests will be filtered through Dr. Haskell and Dr. Nelson for prioritization to Dr. Kohl and CDC.

The next scheduled meeting of the Committee will be December 6 – 7, 2007 and the final meeting will be held February 28 – 29, 2008. If there are additional conference calls as meetings of the full Committee, they will be publicly announced and open to the public.

In closing RADM Royall offered her thanks and appreciation to everyone for their hard work. Dr. Haskell closed the meeting.
