Did anyone think that the FDA would not approve the Vaccine after a 100 million Americans have taken the shot? The impact and ramifications of turning down any of the current vaccines would be huge. Keep in mind that the FDA approves many drugs that do as much harm as good for health issues. Have you ever seen the commercials for drugs these days? The side effects are worse then the health issue. So no, The FDA presents no confidence for me and hasn't for years.


Somehow the anti-vaxers always get hammered as Trump or Republicans. Not true at all. The highest percent of those not vaccinated are Latino and Black Americans. My family has all been vaccinated and are republicans. Most are just wary or have no confidence in the CDC or government. 


I have no issue at all with the Vaccine. However it is no more then a Band-Aid for the virus. You will have less severe illness from Covid, but some still die from the virus with the vaccine. Having the vaccine protects you ZERO from catching Covid, or being a carrier and giving it to others. Though the government is screaming for 100 percent vaccinated, it will do nothing to bring back normalcy into society. In the same breath the government is saying though vaccinated you still need to wear a mask. Really? So besides keeping some of us from getting severely ill from Covid, the vaccines have NOTHING to move us forward.


I read an article yesterday from the CEO of Pfizer stating there will be a variant that the vaccine will not protect or lower the effects of the illness. They can produce with another shot within 45 days. The result is hospital beds filling up again, even if your vaccinated. So no cure, just continued shots. A cure doesn't make money. Welcome to the 21st Century. 


Here is a copy/paste of the Criteria issuance of authorization:


B. Based on the totality of scientific evidence available to FDA, it is reasonable to believe that Pfizer-BioNTech COVID‑19 Vaccine may be effective in preventing COVID-19, and that, when used under the conditions described in this authorization, the known and potential benefits of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID‑19 Vaccine when used to prevent COVID-19 outweigh its known and potential risks; and


C. There is no adequate, approved, and available9 alternative to the emergency of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID‑19 Vaccine to prevent COVID-19. 10


As stated above, the approval is Still under emergency use. This was dated Aug 12, 2021.


Of course I could find nothing about the Known and Potential risks in the entire approval document. The vaccine is not cut and dry in its approval. Not surprising at all. My hope is in the future they find a true vaccine as those before these, one shot, maybe a second booster, and Covid is done. Currently we have nothing more then a flu shot that may or may not work....until the next variant.
