Health care takes center stage in this year’s elections, a sign of midterm strategies to come Democrats are tying health care to affordability issues, while Republicans try to leverage Trump’s recent announcements
https://www.statnews.com/2025/10/31/governors-races-health-care-politics-midterm-testing-grounds/?utm_campaign=morning_rounds&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_icAdD2K-gk0-xh9nTz7UQGxeME9JULWy-x15a_CPAIVx8Ry2AVksy1mMrMgzSsHFHdPfq5NL8Qw1Cp3m4ZeI1xNy9AA&_hsmi=387732612&utm_content=387732612&utm_source=hs_email
Health care takes center stage for midterm elections
The results of next week’s governors’ races could have major implications on the parties’ midterm approaches to federal health policy.
In Virginia and New Jersey’s gubernatorial races, new lines of attack are opening up, with both Democrats and Republicans refining their central message to highlight their perceived strengths. Democrats want to link health issues with economic ones, seizing on voter frustrations around rising costs and cuts to health programs. Republicans, meanwhile, are touting Trump’s deals to lower drug prices.
If you’re a regular Morning Rounds reader, you don’t need me to tell you that American health care is undergoing a transformational shift, especially after the passage of Republicans’ One Big Beautiful Bill, which is set to slash Medicaid funding by nearly $1 trillion over the next decade. Elections are a great way to track how Americans are feeling about it all. Read more from STAT’s Daniel Payne.
Under Vinay Prasad, employees at a key FDA center fear speaking out, look for the exits Prasad is contending with slumping morale as senior leaders quit CBER By Lizzy LawrenceOct. 31, 2025

Vinay Prasad’s tumultuous tenure at the Food and Drug Administration has entered a new, even rockier era: a slow-boiling feud with his staff that could lead to the exodus of dozens of scientists who regulate the nation’s vaccines, biological products, and blood supply.
Insiders say Prasad, as director and chief medical and scientific officer for the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, has cultivated a work environment rife with mistrust and paranoia since returning from his brief departure. They say Prasad has fired key leaders without explanation and struggled to communicate with staff. They also say his vision for the center, other than applying additional scrutiny to vaccines, is unclear.
Another fantastic story from STAT’s Lizzy Lawrence, who interviewed more than 15 current and former FDA staff, contractors, and regulatory experts about Prasad’s rocky tenure. Read on for why his second stint at the CBER has been even more chaotic than his first.

FDA Issues Draft Guidance to Industry, “Scientific Considerations in Demonstrating Biosimilarity to a Reference Product: Updated Recommendations for Assessing the Need for Comparative Efficacy Studies”
Today, FDA released a draft guidance for industry “Scientific Considerations in Demonstrating Biosimilarity to a Reference Product: Updated Recommendations for Assessing the Need for Comparative Efficacy Studies.” This draft guidance describes updated scientific considerations regarding a comparative clinical study with efficacy endpoints (comparative efficacy study or CES) intended to support a demonstration of biosimilarity.
Since publication of the Scientific Considerations Guidance in April 2015, FDA has gained significant experience in evaluating analytical differences between proposed biosimilar products and reference products and understanding their impact on clinical performance. As experience with the development and approval of biosimilars has grown, there has been increasing recognition that CES are not as sensitive as modern analytical technologies for detecting differences between products. Accordingly, FDA’s scientific approach to when a CES may be needed to support a demonstration of biosimilarity is evolving. The draft guidance provides an overview of important scientific considerations for determining when a CES may inform a demonstration of biosimilarity.
FDA is issuing this draft guidance to seek public comment through the accompanying docket (Docket No. FDA-2011-D-0605). Visit Regulations.gov for instructions on how to comment.
This draft guidance describes scientific considerations that support a streamlined approach to demonstrating biosimilarity, which should reduce the time and cost of biosimilar development and help increase access to medications for American patients.

Medicare Beneficiaries Are Not Luddites Author: Drew Altman Published: Oct 29, 2025
https://www.kff.org/from-drew-altman/medicare-beneficiaries-are-not-luddites/
In a new column, President and CEO Dr. Drew Altman discusses new KFF survey data that shows that a surprising share of older adults with Medicare are using health tech regularly, and a solid majority support many of CMS’ goals to make it more widely available. But there are also big income gaps in the use of health tech, and concerns about AI, privacy, and other barriers to rapid and more widespread adoption. “Apparently… a lot of Medicare beneficiaries—but not all beneficiaries equally—are ready for more health tech, and have become tech savvy to survive,” Altman writes.

It’s a Bird! It’s a Plane! It’s a Chemtrail? New Conspiracy Theory Takes Wing at Kennedy’s HHS By Stephanie Armour October 16, 2025
https://kffhealthnews.org/news/article/chemtrails-conspiracy-fringe-theory-maha-kennedy-hhs/
The ideas that airplane vapors are toxic to people and that there are ongoing efforts to intentionally change the climate have long made the social media rounds. Now, they have found advocates at the Department of Health and Human Services.
HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is planning to investigate climate and weather control and is expected to create a task force that will recommend possible federal action, according to a former agency official, an internal agency memo obtained by KFF Health News, and a consultant who helped with the memo.
Under President Donald Trump, unscientific ideas have unusual power to take hold and shape public health policy.

FDA Provides Update to Health Care Professionals About Risk of Inadvertent Intrathecal (Spinal) Administration of Tranexamic Acid Injection
https://www.fda.gov/drugs/drug-safety-and-availability/fda-provides-update-health-care-professionals-about-risk-inadvertent-intrathecal-spinal?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery
FDA Provides Update to Health Care Professionals About Risk of Inadvertent Intrathecal (Spinal) Administration of Tranexamic Acid Injection
FDA is requiring labeling changes to strengthen the warnings that tranexamic acid injection should be administered only intravenously (into the vein). Tranexamic acid injection products are not to be administered intrathecally (into the spine) or as an epidural injection. FDA is taking this action after having identified and evaluated medication error cases of inadvertent neuraxial (intrathecal or epidural) administration of tranexamic acid. In these cases, tranexamic acid was erroneously administered neuraxially instead of the intended local anesthetic (e.g., bupivacaine, lidocaine, mepivacaine, and ropivacaine), which resulted in serious patient outcomes, including prolonged hospitalization and death.
Medical practice-level and facility-level human factors (e.g., storing tranexamic acid injection close to local anesthetics and failing to verify the product before administration) contributed to the medication errors.
Tranexamic acid injection is indicated for short-term use (2 to 8 days) in patients with hemophilia to reduce or prevent hemorrhage and reduce the need for replacement therapy during and following tooth extraction. Health care professionals should only administer tranexamic acid injection by the intravenous route. Tranexamic acid injection is supplied in single-dose ampules and single-dose vials containing 1,000 mg tranexamic acid in 10 mL and is marketed both under the proprietary name, Cyklokapron, and as a generic drug. Tranexamic acid is also supplied in sodium chloride injection in single-dose bags containing 1,000 mg of tranexamic acid in 100 mL solution for intravenous use.
FDA is requiring the following changes to the prescribing information for tranexamic acid injection:
Add a Boxed Warning to communicate the risk of medication errors involving inadvertent neuraxial administration of tranexamic acid injection
Add a statement to indicate that tranexamic acid injection is contraindicated as a neuraxial injection
Update the Dosage and Administration section to clarify that tranexamic acid injection is only to be administered intravenously and to provide instructions for preparing and administering the diluted solution
Additionally, FDA is recommending that the container labels for tranexamic acid injection prominently display the product name and intravenous route of administration.

FDA accepting requests to participate in CMC Development and Readiness Program
FDA is now accepting requests from drug sponsors to participate in the fourth year of the Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls (CMC) Development and Readiness Pilot (CDRP) Program. This pilot program, described in the FDA Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) VII Commitment Letter for fiscal years (FYs) 2023 through 2027, facilitates CMC readiness for selected Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research and Center for Drug Evaluation and Research-regulated products with accelerated clinical development timelines.
For drug and biological product sponsors participating in the pilot, FDA will provide product-specific CMC advice during product development, including two additional CMC-focused Type B meetings, as well as a limited number of additional CMC-focused discussions, based on CMC readiness and defined milestones. The increased communication between FDA review staff and drug sponsors is intended to ensure a mutual understanding of approaches to completing CMC activities to ensure CMC readiness for a marketing application.
