312-759-5298

This number calls everyday

This number calls me over and over day and night.  I want it stopped.

Yep, every freakin day for weeks now this # has called me.  I have yet to pick up the phone for the call.  It's driving me nuts.

keeps calling, never answer, never leaves message

what is this, no message, no talk.

Annoying.  Calls me at work...

Answered one of the calls...some kind of survey about kids under 4 getting their vaccinations.  Told them I didn't know if they were or not, and I didn't care one way or the other.  Hung up while the woman was still sputtering.

Any calls you receive from (312) 759-5298 or (312) 759-2474 are about The National Immunization Survey (NIS). This survey is sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a federal agency of the U.S. government, and is conducted by the National Opinion Research Center (NORC) at the University of Chicago.

This important national survey is intended to improve the health of Americans by collecting information about childhood, adolescent, and adult immunizations. The information collected helps identify communities or areas needing additional resources for immunization programs.  

You can access additional information about the NIS at www.cdc.gov/nis and about NORC at www.norc.org.  Your questions can be addressed to CDC by calling toll-free (800) 232-4636 or sending an email using the link http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/about/contact/nipinfo_contact_form.htm.

The National Do Not Call List does not apply to public health research, so it does not apply to the NIS. If you have concerns about being on the NIS calling list, please call toll-free (866) 999-3340.

Calls all the time, never leaves message just hangs up.

Got a letter in the mail from the US Dept. of Human Services. It said they were taking a survey on Immunization and I was picked to be called. Looks like a legitimate survey by the Center for Disease Control. I will answer next time they call, did't this time but now I realize who it is......

Immunization survey. Called today. Asked for a call back number and was given 866-999-3340. Called and asked to be removed from their list. I am unlisted.

these people have been calling me for a month everyday it is really anoying and ive answered there survey twice why dont they stop calling

This number has called me three times now and everytime I answer they won't talk...If I don't answer they just hang up and no message...i can't believe the cdc would hire these idiots...i pray the calls just stop!!!

I have received about 50 calls from this number within the last month. I called them and requested that my number be removed from their list, so we will see how that goes. I am doubtful.

You are suppose to go through the whole survey and if u hang up on them, theyre going to keep calling you. i know cause i kept hanging up and they kept calling, i finally did the survey (i have no kids n it took a minute, and i haven't received a phone call from them since).. OR you can simply say take me off your list, you ignorant idiots..

This number called me a lot as well but I would was at work when they would call my house, I finally received the phone call, and it was about Immunizations... Our tax dollars $$$ pay for this survey so I participated I have teenagers and the survey is for 13 to 17 year olds and children under 4...

IF you dont want to participate in it just tell them to take you off the list..

WHen i was a teenager I use to be a telemarketer, and I'll tell you that by yelling at the person will make them schedule to call you even more, so be nice... or simply say Take me off the list..

I am educated I know its how the CDC measures their statistics that society reads about and sees on the news...

Why am I unable to stop calls from Norc U Chicago!!?? Every day a receive two or three calls to my home phone and NEVER answer but NEVER got a message. Are they stupid or something??

No this doesn't work. If you bring up the fact that you've repeatedly asked them to stop calling, they cop an attitude and say things like "Ma'am, I've never called you before." Like I meant HER personally. Like I don't have freaking Caller-ID.  

As for the NORC's apparent rep who posted an answer here to the tune of "The National Do Not Call List does not apply to public health research, so it does not apply to the NIS. If you have concerns about being on the NIS calling list, please call toll-free (866) 999-3340." That is B.S. and you know it! If I wanted to talk to an idiot over a toll-free number, I would answer the stupid survey. Leave me the **** alone! This is telephone harassment plain and simple.

Since when are surveys MANDATORY???  Why don't they get the statistics from all the ****ing doctor's offices in the area??? It wouldn't be in violation of the Privacy Act if they didn't release anybody's name.  And it would probably be a lot more accurate.

Leave it to the government to use a method that's been outdated for 15 or 20 years and infinitely annoying to everyone involved.

Wow. Real class.

No wonder people hate telemarketers.

I didnt want to do this survey, and hung up on the person calling. After reading that F**k you person, i can understand that aggrevation.. I almost died of laughter.  Kudos to telemarketers
