We just passed 1000 signers! Thanks very much to all for getting behind this initiative to allow for the easy import and use of internatioally certified life saving PPE, diagnostic tests and treatments.

The FDA has in the meantime made some incremental movement in setting up reactive and complex processes to review case by case the importation of some internationally certified equipment. This is still a far cry from the blanket acceptance of international certification for this which will open up the global supply chain to all US entities that wish to procure such equipment.

I still see 2 potential end goals of this:

1. We get the FDA/CBP to issue the blanket approval for internationally certified equipment for the duration of this pandemic.
2. We get a clause inserted into one of the next COVID-19 inspired bills to be passed by the house and senate.

Thanks as always for your support and in particular now that this petition has passed 1k signatures if you have time please do reach out to your elected representatives to push for this.
