The switcheroo is not so much about the contents/safety/efficacy of the vaccine, but the legal status.

The current Pfizer vaccine is authorized under EUA and is free from liability. The Comirnaty (Pfizer-BioNTech) vaccine will be fully licensed and not immune from liability.

So....the media is saying that the Pfizer vaccine is fully approved so that people can feel better about getting the jab. However, they’ll be getting it under the EUA and will not have any recourse if injured.

Comirnaty won’t be available for many months if not a year or more, meaning that the vast majority of Americans will receive the vaccine under the EUA and have no legal recourse, but thanks to the media they will be under the impression that they are taking a approved vaccine.

Bait and Switch with cover provided by our government and media.

Also consider that this approval was still fast tracked with several steps being skipped in the normal process. Public commentary being one, where the FDA suggested there was no controversy over the vaccine, so no need for public comment. SURE.

Take all in to consideration before becoming a test monkey.

PREP Act gives them immunity under a medical state of emergency which I'm pretty sure Trump declared to be able to block travel from china and also for warp speed. I don't know if biden has rescinded it or not. Probably not because it gives him more power and the vax makers are still protected. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PREP_Act First paragraph

I ain't no test monkey. I'm a horse.

The drug is APPROVED! PERIOD!

“The licensed vaccine has the same formulation as the EUA-authorized vaccine”

THEY ARE THE SAME! It is just a “LEGAL” distinction.

The formulation has been approved!

FDA:
“8 The licensed vaccine has the same formulation as the EUA-authorized vaccine and the products can be used interchangeably to provide the vaccination series without presenting any safety or effectiveness concerns. The products are legally distinct with certain differences that do not impact safety or effectiveness.”

They can’t be sued over the EUA-authorized vaccine, but they can be sued over the Comirnaty Covid vaccine.

The Comirnaty Covid vaccine doesn’t have the legal protections that the EUA-authorized vaccine has, but the “drug” itself is the SAME drug.

Also the Comirnaty Covid vaccine has to jump through all the usual hoops (and public protections) that other approved vaccines have to jump through.

In other words, the Comirnaty Covid vaccine will be FULLY regulated, the EUA-authorized vaccine was/is not.

That doesn’t change the FACT that the two vaccines are THE SAME DRUG and are APPROVED.

I love The American Thinker, but they are just WRONG on this.

See above.

>thanks,that was pretty good but still less than perfect.
The FDA statement was confusing.I agree that A.Thinker just got it wrong.


RE-The licensed vaccine has the same formulation as the EUA-authorized vaccine and the products can be used interchangeably to provide the vaccination series without presenting any safety or effectiveness concerns. The products are legally distinct with certain differences that do not impact safety or effectiveness.”

> It would have been more understandable if they had said that the two products are almost identical but are legally interchangible.Either way,both are approved.

They can’t be sued over the EUA-authorized vaccine, but they can be sued over the Comirnaty Covid vaccine.

That’s not so clear to me because the prep act seems to protect them permanently but others are arguing that when state of emergency expires then prep act protection expires.I’m not certain,do you know?

I believe it was Ali that called it “Rope-A-Dope”.
