Subject: Re: FDA Approves Remdesivir

Group,

Remdesivir is now officially an FDA approved, formulary product for adults and pediatric patients with the following exceptions: pediatric patients weighing 3.5 kg to less than 40 kg or pediatric patients less than 12 years of age weighing at least 3.5 kg.  These patients are not included in the FDA approval and are still under the EUA.  

 We can now stop sending the Fact sheet for all patients that are not included in the exclusions listed above.

 Please let me know if you have any questions.

 Thank you,

 Jonathan
