+# End of CTIS Data Collection
+{: .no_toc}
+
+The US COVID-19 Trends and Impact Survey will stop inviting new respondents to
+complete the survey on June 25, 2022. All aggregate data will remain publicly
+available, and microdata will continue to be available to academic and nonprofit
+researchers. We provide details below on this decision and how it will affect
+users of the data.
+
+
+## Why CTIS Data Collection is Concluding
+
+CTIS was launched at the height of the global COVID-19 emergency, on April 6,
+2020, to enable daily syndromic surveillance at a time when testing and data on
+the emerging pandemic were limited. Since CTIS launched, pandemic response
+decision-makers from around the world have utilized CTIS’ daily data on symptoms
+associated with COVID-19, such as fevers, coughing or shortness of breath – as
+well as other topics covered in the survey from mask wearing to COVID-related
+job loss. See [below](#ctis-impact) to learn more about how CTIS has supported
+the COVID-19 response.
+
+At this point in the pandemic, reliable data to track similar topics as CTIS
+have become more widely available. Additionally, CTIS response rates have
+declined over time, and as COVID-19 has evolved, there is less need for large,
+daily data collection and greater need for measurement of topics that do not
+change significantly on a daily basis. Since CTIS is designed specifically for
+large-scale, daily data collection, the Delphi Group at Carnegie Mellon
+University (CMU), the University of Maryland Social Data Science Center (UMD)
+and Meta have made the decision to stop collecting new survey responses. We are
+working to curate and archive the tens of millions of privacy-protected survey
+responses received since 2020 and the aggregate estimates derived from them to
+ensure the data remain available to academic and nonprofit researchers.
+
+Sampling will be suspended in the United States on June 25, 2022. For details on
+the schedule of the international version administered by the University of
+Maryland, see [their end-of-survey
+announcement](https://gisumd.github.io/COVID-19-API-Documentation/docs/notice/end_of_survey.html).
+
+
+## Availability of Data After the Conclusion of CTIS
+
+We are working to archive the data that has been collected so it can continue to
+inform public health decisions for years to come. In line with CTIS policies and
+standards during the sampling period, all data will be maintained in a way that
+continues to preserve user privacy.
+
+All CTIS aggregate data will continue to be available after data collection
+stops on June 25, 2022 on [UMD‘s Global CTIS](https://covidmap.umd.edu/) and the
+Delphi Group at CMU’s US CTIS websites. Academic and nonprofit researchers may
+continue to [request access](./data-access.md) to non-public, non-aggregated
+survey data for their research, and current approved data users will be able to
+continue accessing the non-aggregated data until their current data use
+agreements (DUA) expire. Researchers currently holding a fully executed DUA will
+have the option to extend their DUA after it expires. Though no new data will be
+collected after June 25, 2022, [Meta’s CTIS
+visualizations](https://dataforgood.facebook.com/covid-survey/) will continue to
+be available, and until the end of 2022, [JH CCP’s COVID Behaviors
+dashboard](https://covidbehaviors.org/) will as well.
+
+
+## CTIS Impact
+
+CTIS is the largest public health survey ever conducted and has been used to
+inform the decisions of governments, health organizations, nonprofits, research
+institutions and academics around the world as they implemented their COVID-19
+response efforts. The survey data has been used by over 100 stakeholders across
+over 60 countries. CTIS has demonstrated the positive impact that surveys of
+health behaviors and needs can have on improving access to health information,
+support, and care.
+
+For example, the Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) uses CTIS
+data to inform its COVID-19 prediction models. Via these models, CTIS mask
+wearing data [informed a mask mandate in
+Poland](https://scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.8562-6/239409865_949264702522493_1292335916807550455_n.pdf?_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=ae5e01&_nc_ohc=-e4DmQpaV94AX-57y2C&_nc_ht=scontent-atl3-1.xx&oh=00_AT8LeGMwJErh4Yfglm0ldVtg5tdVfFvGQFHbSFxfJ2HOFw&oe=6251EB4B),
+which contributed to a significant drop in COVID-19 cases. In the US, a Johns
+Hopkins University study using CTIS data [published in
+Science](https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abh2939) on household
+COVID-19 risk and in-person schooling contributed to the US CDC’s Independent
+Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices’ recommendation to allow
+vaccinations in younger children. Several research groups used CTIS data to
+produce forecasts for the [COVID-19 Forecast
+Hub](https://covid19forecasthub.org/), used by the Centers for Disease Control
+and Prevention to inform COVID-19 response. Overall, there have been [roughly 20
+peer-reviewed research articles using the US survey
+data](https://delphi.cmu.edu/covid19/ctis/#publications) as of April 2022, with
+more currently in progress.
+
+We are grateful to the millions of Facebook users that took the survey, many of
+them taking it multiple times over the course of two years. Thank you as well to
+the many researchers, nonprofit leaders and public health officials who have
+ensured and continue to ensure that CTIS responses inform public health
+decisions around the globe.
