conspicuously shall state that:

 

This product has not been approved or licensed by FDA, but has been
authorized for emergency use by FDA, under an EUA to prevent Coronavirus
Disease 2019 (COVID-19) for use in individuals 16 years of age and older;
and

 

The emergency use of this product is only authorized for the duration of

Could you please confirm that a similar protocol will be instituted in New
