Quote:When a CDER-regulated or CBER-regulated product is authorized for emergency use, we intend to the extent appropriate and permitted by law to make public the Center’s review of the scientific data and information supporting our recommendation to issue the EUA.

There are some limitations in terms of disclosing trade secrets, but overall I think this is wise move, especially given the controversies over some of the EUA's that have been issued (hydroxychloroquine, convalescent plasma).
