Approval would negate and cancel their current fast track protection from lawsuits for damages, right?
Fast track has nothing to do with liability protection. That came 35 years ago with the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986. Congress removed vaccines from the jurisdiction of the courts and created the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (”vaccine court”) to handle injuries from vaccines. This was all done because in the 1970s and 1980s, anti-vaccine activists launched so many nuisance lawsuits that vaccine makers were in danger of being run out of business. Congress didn’t want to see children getting paralyzed by polio again, so they stepped in between the two parties.
That court requires no medical proof that a vaccine caused your injury. It simply requires a reasonable explanation for how it could have done so. Its awards average in the 6-figures. And with that low bar of proof and high payout, they pay an average of 1 claim per 1 million vaccinations.
The people claiming liability protection is new are either ignorant of reality or intentionally misleading you in order to push an agenda.
