Specifically, innovative solutions are needed to modify these existing or pre-approved cohorts to conduct surveillance to identify infections with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), to assess the epidemiology of COVID-19 and to compare COVID-19 with illness associated with co-circulating influenza and other viruses. Early data suggest that individuals aged 65 and above, as well as those with underlying health conditions are especially at risk for poor COVID-19 outcomes, including hospitalization, ICU admission, and death [1]. Populations in long-term care (LTC) facilities are of interest in light of an early outbreak and resulting deaths in Washington State [2]. Furthermore, initial U.S. and international-based findings highlight the role of underlying conditions in COVID-19 related hospitalizations and ICU admissions, with a particular focus on diabetes mellitus, chronic lung disease, and cardiovascular disease [3]. There is an urgent need for a network of clinical sites with timely access to EHR data, that can identify a high-risk cohort to prospectively follow illness trajectories across settings, including ambulatory, outpatient, inpatient, and LTC while collecting details on symptoms, severity, duration, and outcomes to address this current information gap. A research data platform (RDP), such as what we have developed for the Network to Investigate the Risk of Infiuenza-Associated Outcomes and Influenza Vaccine Effectiveness Using Integrated Medical and Public Health Records (VISION), can complement observational protocols that CDC may have in process, and could be implemented in the event of academic or medical research centers limiting face-to-face active patient enrollment. Westat serves as the VISION network data coordinating center and single IRB, providing CDC with project management support and developing a standardized data platform for the collection of health and respiratory illness testing data, To facilitate a rapid start-up, we propose to extend the current VISION ROP rather than standing up a new COVID-19 platform to capture the data needed to prospectively examine some of the most difficult-to- study populations, who may experience some of the most extreme outcomes associated with COVID-19. Data submission pipelines and storage specific to COVD-19 data will be established within the VISION RDP. Identifying older individuals and those with high risk conditions requires partnerships with ‘trusted clinical sites that have the capability to not only identify patients by age and DDocusign Envelope ID: 2576827A-EF35-4987-8812-FOIARSFa35a8 Page 4 of 37 underlying health conditions, but also to track them prospectively as they move through the health system (e.., tracking a patient from a LTC setting, to the hospital, and back to LTC). We propose building on our relationships with the current VISION study sites to rapidly stand up a COVID-19 focused data network. For the VISION project, we went through an extensive site vetting process, and have four sites that are capable of pulling needed data elements, and with whom we have existing agreements in place that will allow for the necessary rapid start-up of this data collection effort. on C2 Project Objective ooxa) C3.

The DMP is a deliverable and a living document that should be updated throughout the life cycle of data. A final DMP is required at the end of the contract performance that shows where the data are deposited and how they are being made accessible or justification provided for not doing so, DDocusign Envelope ID: 2576827A-EF35-4987-8812-FOIARSFa35a8 Page 28 of 37 Data Management Plan A.DMP for each collection and/or generation of public health data should include the following information: ‘© A description of the public health data to be collected or generated in the contract period of performance; ‘© Standards to be used for the collected or generated public health data; ‘© Mechanisms for or limitations to providing access to and sharing of the data (include a description of provisions for the protection of privacy, confidentiality, security, intellectual property, or other rights) ‘or justification for why data cannot be made accessible.

The data rights clauses give the government “unlimited rights” in data first produced (when funded by government solely) in the performance of a contract. “Unlimited rights” is an unlimited license to use, disclose or reproduce the data; it does not give the government ownership of the data. Unlimited rights in data would allow the government to archive and make public non-proprietary data first produced in contract performance.
