How the FDA continues to generate the science and data of a pandemic, keep the public health on active duty, and serve innovation, in the year that upended the world.
On April 1st, 2020, we published a blog post on the Herculean effort taking place between governmental and private sectors in the escalating fight against COVID-19. The collaboration aimed to, among other things, overcome stark shortages of ventilators that were anticipated across the nation.
It’s their job to oversee the entire medical industry, all while facing urgency for COVID-19 therapeutics and vaccines. It’s amazing how the FDA’s strategic goals have remained on track, vaccines are in multiple stages of research and development, and there is humble confidence to carry us forward.
