OpenFDA (open.fda.gov) API: "temporary suspension of updates"

aikawa writes: The OpenFDA API is used by developers to get information about drugs, recalls, medical devices, and adverse events.

Since March 31, the OpenFDA status page reads: "there is a temporary suspension of updates to the openFDA datasets".

This is impacting third-party developers, and there is speculation that it might be linked to ongoing changes at the Department of Health & Human Services (HHS), which is set to loose 20,000 full-time employees under DOGE. OpenFDA is one of the most-used government Open Data APIs, its demise would be a serious setback for the Open Data movement.
