Old report deleted from the CRS site?

On June 22, 2022, a Congressional Research Service report called “U.S. Proposals to Amend the International Health Regulations” was released. In our research, we have referenced this report because it described the IHR as an executive agreement which is a type of treaty.

This report, uploaded below, appears to now be missing from the CRS website. In its place is an updated report (Feb 1 2024) which deletes the passage of interest, and adds some other items.

Because the PDF formatting was protected, these were copied and pasted into word, an automatic comparison done, and the following variances highlight.
