3D Printing and the FDA's Response to COVID-19
The FDA continues with creative and flexible approaches to address access to critical medical products in response to COVID-19. Healthcare practitioners and researchers at academic institutions, non-traditional manufacturers, communities of makers, and individuals are helping support and fill local and national needs. For example, the FDA is working in partnership with the NIH, VA, and America Makes to support non-traditional manufacturing approaches, such as 3D printing, to address devices shortages including personal protective equipment (PPE). Through this partnership, 3D-printable designs for COVID response are given a clinical assessment by the VA, and the NIH posts them on the 3D Print Exchange.

U.S. Coronavirus Deaths by State - June 24
As of June 24, more than 121,100 people in the U.S. have died after contracting the new coronavirus, according to a New York Times database. The Times used data from reports of coronavirus cases and deaths by U.S. states and counties. The database includes cases and deaths that have been identified by public health officials as probable coronavirus patients, which means the individual did not have a confirmed test for coronavirus infection but were evaluated using criteria developed by national and local governments. Read more about the data here.

Did You Know ...

...that the following is from a Father's Day message last week?

"Don't waste your time figuring out who is right. Figure out what is right, and then you'll know where everybody stands."

 

Tip of the Week

We also read that Daniel O'Connell said that:

"Nothing is politically right which is morally wrong."

Also, it has been said that "Each man's belief is right in his own eyes." We ask the question then, "Where does one get his beliefs?" Obviously from the family/home, church, school, reading/listening to programs, friends, and the environment.

Former President Harry S. Truman once said in a prayer:

"...Help me to be, to think, to act what is right, because it is right; make me truthful, honest and honorable in all things; make me intellectually honest for the sake of right and honor..."
