- Description
- The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases (NCIRD) intends to award a sole source contract to Center for American Indian Health Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, 415 N. Washington St., Baltimore, MD 21231 for the acquisition of the effort entitled "Haemophilus influenzae among southwestern American Indian children". The statutory authority for this sole source acquisition is 10 U.S.C 2304(c)(1) in accordance with FAR Part 6.302-1- only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency requirement. The NAICS code for this procurement is NAICS 541990 - Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services. Historically, American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) children aged <5 years have suffered from invasive H. influenzae type b (Hib) disease at rates at least 5 times higher than the general U.S. population. Following introduction of a primary series and booster dose with conjugate Hib vaccine in the late 1980s, rates of Hib disease decreased substantially among both AI/AN and non-Native children. However, rates of Hib disease among AI/AN children remain much higher than among non-AI/AN children, despite Hib vaccine coverage similar to or greater than the national average and proven efficacy of Hib vaccine in this population. Additionally, AI/AN children aged <5 years have a higher incidence of all forms of invasive H. influenzae disease than children in all other races. Despite comprising <3% of the general population, it is estimated that 10% of the burden of invasive H. influenzae disease in the US occurs in AI/AN individuals, reflecting a serious health disparity in a life-threatening illness.
