” require a COVID-19 vaccination for all servicemembers by mid-September, or immediately should any COVID vaccines clear FDA approval (the vaccines are currently only authorized for emergency use).”
The way current USA leadership acts, I must question if they would force FDA to approve of the vaccine.
How much money does our politicians have invested in the vaccine companies?
Will they lock people up for not getting the vaccine, for accepting election results, and speech?
Given the history of the FDA and complete mishandling of approvals such as Thalidomide, I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see their hand forced in the name of political expediency.
fda is following orders. trial design and some subsequent stuff makes that seem almost certain.
Of course they are forcing FDA approval. They’ve said they expect FDA approval by the end of September, when the process is supposed to take years. There’s no reason for them to expect it to happen this fast unless they know the process is rigged.
