The FDA is being urged to hasten full approval for the COVID-19 vaccines. It should let the process play out.
That process is going on now for all three vaccines.for expedited review of its vaccine, which would shorten the FDA process to six months or so from the usual 10 months or more; Moderna made a similar application on June 1. Johnson & Johnson hasn’t filed its application yet.
The thinking underlying the push for prompt final authorization is that it will give policymakers, medical authorities and political leaders an additional tool to encourage vaccine holdouts to get their shots, including a stronger legal case for mandating vaccinations.
Hughes also noted that the federal Equal Employment Opportunities Commission had ruled in May that employers can require employees to be vaccinated, as long as they make accommodations for workers with disabilities, genuine medical excuses or sincerely held religious beliefs against vaccination. The chance that these people will be swayed by the upgrading of the vaccines from EUA to final authorization is plainly small.Column: Backing the FDA, a federal judge delivers a blow against bogus stem cell clinics
