Dear EVD Network Members,

Please find attached the draft of the 2024 version of the ECDC opinion 
regarding the implementation of European Reference Laboratories (EURLs) for 
public health. This document serves as an update to the opinion issued in 
2023. Notably, it includes the ECDC’s proposal for the establishment of 
EURLs in the domains of food- and water-borne diseases and vector-borne 
parasitic diseases.

Important Points:

*	The document has been shared with the National Focal Points for 
Microbiology.
*	These focal points are requested to provide their feedback to ECDC by 
Monday, March 25.
*	If you have any comments or suggestions regarding the proposal, kindly 
direct them to your respective National Focal Points for Microbiology. 
Unfortunately, the EVD team cannot accept comments directly.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Best regards,

Celine Gossner

On behalf of the ECDC Emerging, Food and Vector-borne Diseases group
