The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention strongly endorses the proposal of the ICCIDD Global Network. Household coverage with adequately iodized salt is the key programmatic indicator for the Universal Salt Iodization program. The current RTK methodology does not allow creation of this indicator. The proposal here would not add at all to the length of time in the household since the salt sample is already being obtained in the household.
