Jkt 256001 Section 564 of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360bbb–3) as amended by the Project BioShield Act of 2004 (Pub. L. 108–276) and the Pandemic and AllHazards Preparedness Reauthorization Act of 2013 (Pub. L. 113–5) allows FDA to strengthen the public health protections against biological, chemical, nuclear, and radiological agents. Among other things, section 564 of the FD&C Act allows FDA to authorize the use of an unapproved medical product or an unapproved use of an approved medical product in certain situations. On August 2, 2021, FDA issued an EUA to Thermo Fisher for the TaqPath COVID–19 MS2 Combo Kit 2.0, subject to the terms of the Authorization. Notice of the issuance of the Authorization is published elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, as required by section 564(h)(1) of the FD&C Act.

II. EUA Revocation Request On September 22, 2021, Thermo Fisher requested the revocation of, and on September 27, 2021, FDA revoked the Authorization for, the TaqPath COVID–19 MS2 Combo Kit 2.0. Because Thermo Fisher has notified FDA that it is longer commercially supporting the TaqPath COVID–19 MS2 Combo Kit 2.0 and requested FDA revoke the Authorization, FDA has determined that it is appropriate to protect the public health or safety to revoke this Authorization. III. Electronic Access An electronic version of this document and the full text of the revocation are available on the internet at https://www.regulations.gov/. IV. The Revocation Having concluded that the criteria for revocation of the Authorization under section 564(g) of the FD&C Act are met, FDA has revoked the EUA for the TaqPath COVID–19 MS2 Combo Kit 2.0.
