SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DATES: Table of Contents The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) proposed, among other things, to classify Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed (AVA) on the basis of findings and recommendations of the Panel on Review of Bacterial Vaccines and Toxoids (the Panel) on December 13, 1985.

The purpose of this final order is to categorize AVA according to the evidence of its safety and effectiveness, SUMMARY: PO 00000 thereby determining if it may remain licensed and on the market; issue a final response to recommendations made in the Panel’s report, and; respond to comments on the previously published proposed order.
