In response to requests from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, on April 27, 2009 the FDA issued Emergency Use Authorizations to make available diagnostic and therapeutic tools to identify and respond to the 2009 swine flu outbreak under certain circumstances.
Section 302, the “Authorization for Medical Products for Use in Emergencies” amends the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) current Emergency Use Authorization authority to enable the FDA to prepare for and prevent a public health emergency rather than simply responding to it.
