Letters from America
Pfizer Vaccine Approved by FDA in America
By Greg Evans
Special Correspondent
Pfizer vaccine
The Pfizer vaccine has now been officially approved by the FDA. This is incredibly important because it will hopefully encourage the anti-vaxxers to get their inoculations and protect everybody else.

It has been frightening and appalling that people have felt the need to not get vaccinated. Hospitals are filled with people that are deathly sick from COVID-19 and the Delta Variant. It is a scary time in our world but being selfish and impractical is only hindering the problem and allowing it to continue.

Acting FDA Commissioner Janet Woodcock said in a statement, ¡°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.¡±

This might allow companies to begin mandating that their employees get vaccinated. They should! Why risk everyone else¡¯s safety, especially the children now susceptible to this horrific disease because you are a weirdo conspiracy theorist?

Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy explained that the approval will serve multiple purposes including encouraging employers to require their employees to get the vaccination and even their customers. One statistic claims that about 30% of the eligible population in America has not yet received any vaccine.

The new vaccine will be distributed as ¡°Comirnaty,¡± and is said to be over 90% effective in preventing COVID-19.
