Immunization Research, Demonstration, Public Information and Education Training and Clinical Skills Improvement Projects — CFDA 93.185

Few awards, large mean: 28 records under $1.01B

Assistance listing 93.185 is titled IMMUNIZATION RESEARCH, DEMONSTRATION, PUBLIC INFORMATION AND EDUCATION TRAINING AND CLINICAL SKILLS IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS in the USAspending.gov files this site indexes. The obligation total on that code is $1,007,027,678.86. An obligation is a recorded federal commitment on an award. It is not an outlay. Treating $1.01B as vaccine already purchased mixes two series. SpendingVault keeps the label as obligations.

28 awards sit under that dollar book—a very small record count next to a billion-dollar sum. Dividing $1,007,027,678.86 by 28 produces a mean near $35.97 million per award record. That quotient is derived from the two packet totals. It is not a typical research-project budget and not a cost per dose. Immunization research and demonstration dollars often sit on a handful of large assistance actions, which is why 28 records can carry $1.01B.

25 recipients in 21 states

CFDA 93.185 lists 25 recipients and 21 states against 28 awards. Recipient count is not unique patients immunized. It is how many organizational recipients the assistance extract stores for this listing. Awards (28) and recipients (25) sit close together: most rows look like one-to-one actions rather than a mass formula file. The 21-state span is a coded-jurisdiction count, narrower than many health listings, and is not a map of every clinic.

Because 28 awards are few, a single large action can move $1,007,027,678.86 without a matching jump in the 25-recipient count. Extra modifications can lift award volume while dollars barely move. The 93.185 hub keeps dollars, awards, recipients, and states visible so one statistic is not inferred from another.

Obligations versus immunization outlays

USAspending.gov publishes obligations on assistance awards. The $1,007,027,678.86 figure for CFDA 93.185 can include commitments that will disburse later. A vaccine-procurement table, a coverage-rate report, and a Treasury outlay series are different publications. This page does not translate the obligation total into those series.

If a number you expected is missing, the usual cause is a different reporting concept. Start from the obligation definition, then open the 93.185 program page. Do not stretch 28 awards or 25 recipients to cover every immunization dollar that touches research or training.

What the 93.185 tables omit

The immunization research and demonstration hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a dose inventory, not a VAERS extract, and not a public-service-announcement airing log. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $1,007,027,678.86. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 28 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 21 states is a coding field. A grantee coded to one cell can dominate geography while collaborators sit in many counties. Read the program page before any state split.

How to cite CFDA 93.185

A complete citation is $1,007,027,678.86 in obligations for CFDA 93.185, covering 28 awards, 25 recipients, and 21 states, drawn from USAspending.gov assistance awards on SpendingVault. Name the series as obligations. If the question is concentration rather than dollars, lead with 28 awards and 25 recipients, then the $1.01B total.

Start with the Immunization Research, Demonstration, Public Information and Education Training and Clinical Skills Improvement Projects page, then the all-programs index. Agency pages show awarding organizations; they do not replace this listing’s obligation total. Nothing here is medical advice.

A worked reading of the 93.185 extract

Start from the four packet facts: $1,007,027,678.86, 28 awards, 25 recipients, and 21 states under CFDA 93.185. The mean near $35.97 million is a quotient from a tiny award count, not a typical demonstration grant. If a later USAspending.gov file adds one large action, dollars can jump while 25 recipients barely move. If modifications proliferate, 28 can rise while the dollar book stays close to $1.01B.

Nothing in the extract splits research from demonstration, or public information from clinical-skills training. Those cuts live outside this packet. Treat CFDA 93.185 as an assistance-listing tag on USAspending.gov award files. Open the program page, then the all-programs index, for a same-series ranking. Cite 28 awards next to the dollars so the extreme concentration is visible.

Questions

How much is obligated under immunization research CFDA 93.185?

USAspending.gov assistance awards indexed on SpendingVault show $1,007,027,678.86 in obligations for CFDA 93.185. That sum is an obligation total, not a Treasury outlay total and not a count of doses. The same extract lists 28 awards, 25 recipients, and 21 states.

Why does CFDA 93.185 have only 28 awards?

The indexed award count is 28 against 25 recipients. Immunization research and demonstration dollars often sit on a handful of large assistance actions, which is why $1,007,027,678.86 can coexist with a very low record count. The 28 figure is a file statistic, not a count of studies or clinics. Recipient count is not unique patients.

Does the $1.01B total include vaccine already purchased?

Not as a cash-paid sum. USAspending reports obligations—commitments to pay—rather than outlays. The $1,007,027,678.86 figure can include amounts that will disburse later. The 28-award count is a record tally, not a count of doses. Cite CFDA 93.185 with the obligation total from USAspending.gov assistance awards, not an outlay series.

How many states appear on CFDA 93.185?

The extract codes 21 states for this immunization research listing. That count is place-of-performance geography in USAspending.gov assistance files, not a national coverage map. Those rows still sit under the $1,007,027,678.86 obligation total and the 25-recipient count.
