The Food and Drug Administration has formally approved Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine. The widely anticipated decision replaces the emergency use authorization granted by the agency last December.
This is the first COVID-19 vaccine to be subject to a full review by the U.S. regulator and to get an approval that puts the vaccine on par with other marketed vaccines.
The full approval could make it easier for employers, the military and universities to mandate vaccination and may reassure some people who are hesitant about the vaccine.
"While this and other vaccines have met the FDA's rigorous, scientific standards for emergency use authorization, as the first FDA-approved COVID-19 vaccine, the public can be very confident that this vaccine meets the high standards for safety, effectiveness, and manufacturing quality the FDA requires of an approved product," acting FDA Commissioner Janet Woodcock said in a statement.
A June poll from the Kaiser Family Foundation found that 31% of unvaccinated people said they would be more likely to get a COVID-19 vaccine once one receives full approval from the FDA.

This means that people all over the country will be forced to take the "vaccine" or lose their jobs. Many knowledgeable people working in healthcare who are already in short supply. This also affects federal and state employees, and the military. In the state we live in working in education or anything to do with child care along with all firefighters even wildland who are already in short supply will be fired if they do not get the jab.
Vaccines don’t allow you to get a disease you are vaccinated from.
Vaccines don’t allow you to transmit a disease you are vaccinated from.
Vaccines don’t require booster shots every six months.
Former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb Joins Pfizer's Board of Directors
Interesting timing...
Sorry for not proof reading my comment... but you get the picture. In the last 8 months the numbers of death and injury associated with vaccines has been greater than that of all vaccines combined in the last 30 years. Most of us know someone who has had a serious problem from the vaccines.
Yes, mRNA gene therapies are not technically “vaccines”.
I saw on Bannon this morn that Pfizer is only 39% effective....SloJoe is fast-tracking this drug with FDA approval......today. Bystard!!!
Still not taking it unless my workplace requires it, which it has not, so far.
The world is going to need control group.
This would be me. I have been on edge about this for months now, and they just told us recently this would be mandatory.
After seeing how the communist Biden Regime is treating the safety of Americans that they have abandoned in Afghanistan there is no way in hell that I trust the government to forcibly inject me with anything.
Each of us can take this personally.
First, the "high standards" of FDA approvals were thrown under the bus solely for the very small Big Guy's political benefit.
Secondly, the taxpayer funded NPR was used to announce "full approval" and thereby blatantly deceive the taxpayers.
Joseph Goebbels would approve!
Well there goes the credibility of the FDA.
WGAF. The U.S. government also assured us less than two months ago that the Afghanistan government wouldn’t collapse.
>>> Still not taking it unless my workplace requires it
Keeping your job is worth your life?
Trump should be doing a victory lap about now! Warp Speed has been a huge success! Woo Hoo!
Did you forget the /sarc tag?
I didn’t forget sh*t!
We all knew this was coming. They invested way too much in the propaganda as the jab as the only solution.

Typical anti-vaxxer hyperbolic propaganda. Even a cursory review of the news would disclose that nothing prevents an employer from mandating the vaccines as a condition of employment.
How scientifically valid is this FDA approval. Given their quick response vs. normal time frames, is this a political approval?
