Opgal Optronic Industries Ltd.

This is to advise you that the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reviewed your website at the Internet address https://www.opgal.com on February 22 and 25, 2021. We have also reviewed your social media pages at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDKt9En7lks0xA5W3NtoLqg, https://twitter.com/OpgalLtd, and https://www.facebook.com/Opgal/ where you direct consumers to your website, https://www.opgal.com. The FDA has observed that your website offers products for measuring human body temperature, specifically the “Therm-App MD” and “Therm-App MD Pro”, for sale in the United States. Based on our review, these products are intended to mitigate, prevent, treat, diagnose or cure COVID-191 in people, and thus are devices under section 201(h) of the Federal, Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the “Act”), 21 U.S.C. § 321(h).

FDA’s review of your website revealed the following statements that establish that the Therm-App MD and Therm-App MD Pro are intended for the mitigation, prevention, treatment, diagnosis, or cure of COVID-19, including:

• “Have you seen our case study about using thermal cameras to help prevent the spread of COVID-19?” [Published as a pop-up on your Therm-App MD Pro webpage, https://www.opgal.com/products/therm-app-md-pro]

• “HELP MINIMIZE THE SPREAD OF THE CORONA VIRUS OUTBREAK.” [Published in your YouTube video titled, “Therm-App MD by Opgal”, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bmmXY8158I]

• “The skies are gradually opening up again, and it's time to put the ThermApp MD PRO up to the test... #airportsecurity #airport #covidsolutions #thermalimaging #thermalcameras #feverscreening” [Published your Twitter webpage, https://twitter.com/OpgalLtd/status/1310828682022453248]

• “Elevated body temperature becomes another security concern in this day and age. Opgal's thermal imaging technology has got you covered here as well… #thermalimaging #security #covid19solutions” [Published on your Facebook webpage, https://www.facebook.com/Opgal/videos/721164435451235/?__tn__=-R]

The Therm-App MD and Therm-App MD Pro are offered for sale in the United States without marketing approval, clearance, or authorization from FDA. Accordingly, your products are adulterated under section 501(f)(1)(B) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 351(f)(1)(B), because your firm does not have approved applications for premarket approval (PMA) in effect pursuant to section 515(a) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360e(a), or approved applications for an investigational device exemption (IDE) under section 520(g) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360j(g). Your products are also misbranded under section 502(o) the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 352(o), because your firm did not notify the agency of its intent to introduce these products into interstate commerce for commercial distribution as required by section 510(k) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360(k). The introduction or delivery for introduction of these products into interstate commerce is prohibited under section 301(a) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 331(a).

There is currently a global outbreak of respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus that has been named “severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2” (SARS-CoV-2). The disease caused by the virus has been named “Coronavirus Disease 2019” (COVID-19). On January 31, 2020, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued a declaration of a public health emergency related to COVID-19 and mobilized the Operating Divisions of HHS.2 In addition, on March 13, 2020, the President declared a national emergency in response to COVID-19.3 Therefore, FDA is taking urgent measures to protect consumers from certain products that, without approval, clearance, or authorization by FDA, claim to mitigate, prevent, treat, diagnose, or cure COVID-19 in people. As described herein, you offer for sale products that are intended for use in the mitigation, prevention, treatment, diagnosis, or cure of COVID-19 in people. We request that you take immediate action to cease the sale of such adulterated and misbranded products for the mitigation, prevention, treatment, diagnosis, or cure of COVID-19.

Use of telethermographic devices for the assessment of human body temperature can present potentially serious public health risks. Such risks may include, but are not limited to, the device incorrectly detecting a normal human body temperature when a person has an elevated temperature and incorrectly assessing a person to have an elevated body temperature when they do not. A person with an undetected elevated temperature who was subject to temperature assessment using a telethermographic device may, as a result, be less likely to adhere to infection prevention and control guidelines, such as social distancing and using personal protective equipment. These risks are more likely to be present where telethermographic devices scan multiple individuals simultaneously. Your website, https://www.opgal.com, includes statements that indicate that the Therm-App MD and Therm-App MD Pro are intended to scan multiple individuals simultaneously, including:

• For the Therm-App MD Pro, “Multiple Hotspot Detection & Tracking” [Published in your Therm-App MD Pro Brochure, https://www.opgal.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Therm-App-MD-Pro-Brochure.pdf]

• For the Therm-App MD Pro, “Up to 20 Simultaneous Scans” and “Scans multiple faces at once” [Published on your Therm-App MD Pro webpage, https://www.opgal.com/products/therm-app-md-pro]

• “[T]he Therm-App MD Pro can simultaneously and passively measure multiple people's temperature” [Published in your case study about a hospital in Jerusalem, Israel, https://www.opgal.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Shaare-Zedek-Case-Study-4.pdf]

• “No individual measurement required.” [Published in your Therm-App MD Brochure, https://www.opgal.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/ThermAppMD.pdf]
