PDUFA is our most vulnerable program and will run out of money first. We’ll get into February but how far into Feb is still very fluid. We’re trying to free resources to extend its runway. We said 4/5 weeks counting this week. That could change but is our rough estimate right now twitter.com/dgingery/statu…

#FDA will issue within a month the guidance implementing the policy steps we announced in November to limit youth access and appeal of these products. But if these trends don’t reverse sharply and rapidly, I fear the consensus supporting these products for adults will disappear.

Today, my #FDA colleagues who are very important to our mission yet find themselves furloughed, and many who are excepted and continue to work, will not get their usual pay. I deeply regret these hardships. And I admire very much their continued dedication to our special mission. pic.twitter.com/3CSAqxzN9U

My note to #FDA colleagues today. For many who are furloughed, and can’t check email, I share it here and on our website. On this day when many will receive no paycheck, we’re reminded of the special mission that binds us together in challenging work and difficult circumstances. pic.twitter.com/SO4pB5Lacq

I'm proud of the work done by FDA’s Generic Drug Program in ensuring Americans have access to high quality, lower cost, safe and effective generics. I’m committed to continuing to advance policies aimed at making it more efficient to bring generic competition to the market. pic.twitter.com/BTAHBtLaSj

.@AC360 please have your guest Sara Doerr contact me. Nobody should be unable to access a clinical trial or compassionate use drug owing to the funding lapse. We will help her. Our drug review staff remains at their posts across our centers. CNN never contacted us before airing.

Despite the #shutdown, today I was pleased to welcome 32 new user-fee funded employees to FDA. We're delighted to have them, and thankful that carryover balances allow us to finalize their start. Important to note, it represents only 48% of new staff we planned to on-board today. pic.twitter.com/o2Yd7NiVfR
