Public comment

Public engagement and input are vital to ACIP’s work. Members of the public are invited to submit comments to ACIP in two ways: (1) written comments submitted via regulations.gov, and/or (2) oral public comment at ACIP meetings.

How to submit a written public comment

Any member of the public can submit a written public comment to ACIP. Prior to an ACIP meeting, this page will be updated with information on how to submit a comment using the Federal eRulemaking Portal. Follow the instructions for submitting comments. All submissions received must include the agency name and Docket Number.

All relevant comments received will be posted without change to https://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information provided. For access to the docket or to read background documents or comments received, go to https://www.regulations.gov.

How to request to make an oral public comment

ACIP meetings are virtual meetings and will include time for oral public comment for members of the public. All individuals interested in making an oral public comment are strongly encouraged to submit a request during the open public comment period. This page will be updated with instructions on how to submit a request closer to the next ACIP meeting.

If the number of persons requesting to speak is greater than can be reasonably accommodated during the scheduled time, CDC will conduct a lottery to determine the speakers for the scheduled public comment session. CDC staff will notify individuals regarding their request to speak by email. To accommodate the significant interest in participation in the oral public comment session of ACIP meetings, each speaker will be limited to 3 minutes, and each speaker may only speak once per meeting.

Requests to make an oral public comment are closed.
