    Drug Fix: ‘America First’ US FDA User Fees, Moderna’s Flu Vaccine Saga Continues

    Pink Sheet Executive Editor Derrick Gingery, Managing Editor Bridget Silverman, Senior Editor Sue Sutter, and Editor-in-Chief Nielsen Hobbs discuss a series of US Food and Drug Administration proposals for user fee program changes that would advance President Trump’s priorities and the concerns they raise (:31). They also consider the impact of the agency’s decision to review Moderna’s mRNA flu vaccine application shortly after refusing to file it and using accelerated approval for one of the proposed indications (8:37), as well as ideas for sponsors wondering if their development advice is still good (25:24).

    ESG, Eco‑Pricing and Sustainable Packaging, with Steve Ramus

    In Part 2 of HBW Insight’s conversation with sustainability leader Steve Ramus, we dig into the practical realities shaping the future of sustainability in consumer health, from what consumers are actually willing to pay for, to why packaging, supply chains and long‑term planning remain some of the industry’s toughest challenges. Drawing on two decades of sustainability and ESG experience, Ramus explains how consumer price sensitivity varies across markets, why sustainability can ultimately make companies more efficient, and how inflation complicates the conversation. We also explore the complex world of pharmaceutical packaging — where safety, stability and regulation often collide with expectations around plastics, recyclability and waste — and why progress, though slow, cannot stall. Timestamps: 2:00 – Will consumers pay more for sustainable OTCs? 7:00 – You don’t want to be unsustainable 9:00 – ESG is good for business 10:00 – Retailer expectations 15:00 – The state of play in OTC packaging 20:00 – The challenge of replacing plastic 23:00 – The challenge of recycling 27:00 – Sustainability priorities right now 31:00 – Supply chain 32:00 – The life of a sustainability professional Guest Bio: Steve Ramus is a global sustainability and ESG executive with 20 years of experience aligning strategy with business growth, risk mitigation, and value creation.
