"In order to effectively regulate products that diagnose, treat or prevent infectious diseases, scientists and reviewers in the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research must understand the bacteria, viruses, and parasites that cause diseases. Scientists in CDER conduct many programs to advance regulatory science and research on pathogens -- agents that cause infection or disease. There are many pathogens being studied at CDER’s Office of Biotechnology Products – from food and blood-borne bacteria, to infections caused by parasites, and viruses such as the Zika virus. CDER is charged with advancing public health through the review, regulation, and research of potential treatments. How does the study of bacteria and viruses help drug development and review? Let‘s explore."

"The success of any disease eradication initiative depends strongly on the level of societal and political commitment, with a key role for the World Health Assembly. Eradication and ongoing programmes constitute potentially complementary approaches to public health. Elimination and eradication are the ultimate goals of public health, evolving naturally from disease control."

"According to NIH, the High-Risk, High-Reward Research program provides support for “exceptionally creative scientists pursuing highly innovative research with the potential for broad impact in biomedical, behavioral, or social sciences within the NIH mission.”
The program is funded through NIH’s Common Fund which is something like the agency’s “venture capital” resource that invests in innovative research projects that cut across different divisions within the agency and that - because of their inherent risk - may be overlooked in the traditional NIH peer-review process."

“Under the Invention Secrecy Act of 1951, patent applications on new inventions can be subject to secrecy orders restricting their publication if government agencies believe that disclosure would be ‘detrimental to the national security’.”

"The Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution mandates that private property cannot be taken for public use “without just compensation.” But this clause was eviscerated by U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Love Terminal Partners v. United States, which held that any property not earning a current positive cash flow can be taken by the government without a dime of compensation. Unless this ruling is reversed on appeal, it will have a devastating impact on the value of millions of properties with excellent prospects for appreciation but no current tenants. And it will put all real-estate investments not earning money at risk of being stolen by the government."
