Hahn: FDA will make some changes amid COVID-19 permanent

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will look to permanently implement some of the processes and policies adopted in its response to the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn said during a virtual briefing hosted by the Alliance for a Stronger FDA on Monday.

Hahn’s statements during the briefing closely mirrored statements he made in a pre-recorded video FDA uploaded to YouTube on Friday.
