Abstract
This rule finalizes updates to the HHS list of select agents and toxins that could pose a severe threat to public health and safety. These updates were proposed along with other changes to the select agent and toxin regulations, which will be addressed in a separate regulatory action. In a companion document published in this issue of the Federal Register, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is making parallel regulatory changes.
