Horrific stuff seeing the level of expertise leaving the building at FDA. Some of the program managers I’ve dealt with in the past have taken the payout with their roles left vacant. Just absolutely abhorrent levels of leadership, the 30 day response timeframes for submissions is starting to produce some sloppy work on their side.

Trust no one, I say. If a doctor prescribes a drug that's only approved in US not the rest of G-7, then maybe take a pass. And yes, FDA is the global leader, but this disarray has caused others to step up--similar to EU being a bit more self sufficient and responsible when it comes to national defense.
