Let's hear what significance you think that has.

Wrong. Pfizer has immunity under the PREP Act for vaccines under EUA as long as the emergency persist, and you have recourse through the CICP.

Correct, through the NVICP

Perhaps you are too literal so using absolutes confused you...

EUA-approved COVID vaccines have an extraordinary liability shield under the 2005 Public Readiness and Preparedness Act. Vaccine manufacturers, distributors, providers and government planners are immune from liability. The only way an injured party can sue is if he or she can prove willful misconduct, and if the U.S. government has also brought an enforcement action against the party for willful misconduct. No such lawsuit has ever succeeded.
The government has created an extremely stingy compensation program, the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program, to redress injuries from all EUA products. The program’s parsimonious administrators have compensated under 4% of petitioners to date — and not a single COVID vaccine injury — despite the fact that physicians, families and injured vaccine recipients have reported more than 600,000 COVID vaccine injuries.

I have no idea what that means in this context.
However, contrary to every statement you have made in this thread, Pfizer has liability protection for both the Pfizer-BioNtech branded vaccine and the Comirnaty-branded vaccine, and people in the United States have recourse through government structured compensation programs for both vaccines. (the CICP and the NVICP, respectively).
The labeling of the vaccination has no bearing on liability for Pfizer whatsoever.

It was obvious by about day 4 that they realize they were gonna get their arse kicked on the OSHA thing and they just went dead silent on it.
And, of course, the media happily let them go silent on it.

I wouldn't say this. I'd say BioNTech-Pfizer and Comirnaty are "legally distinct". That what the FDA says. Whatever that means.
But I do agree with you Comirnaty has full FDA approval and is not available and BioNTech-Pfizer remains under EUA and is available.

gaslight corporations
This....my company from the beginning didn't want to say anything about vaccines either for them or against them. They wanted it to be a personal decision as it should be.
Once the mandate came out their edict to the people that needed to act was let's get ready but we are going to wait until OSHA says something official before we actually do anything. If they do we are 100% ready to go....BUT there are those in the company that believe as I do and many here do that they won't do anything. Hell they can barely handle the mandates they have now much less an added mandate that would apply to every private company not matter what industry.
I'd like to have seen more companies do it this way....alas it didn't happen. The company I work for is a fortune 500 company HQ'd in Texas....I'd be happy to retire for these folks if I'm so lucky.

That would be because that is a fact. The Comirnaty label is not widely available yet. Comirnaty is simply the name brand of the Pfizer-BioNtech vaccine. The generically branded version is completely available.

You seem pretty knowledgeable on this subject. Help me understand - since the two are the same ingredients/same vax, why is one FDA approved but not available, and the other on EUA is the only available?

You already have to answer questions about the covid vaccine when applying for jobs. It doesn't matter if the mandate comes down or not. It worked.

Everyone is speculating what the legal differences are between BionNTech-Pfizer and Comirnaty. We know there is a legal distinction between the two because they tell us so in footnote one of their FDA FAQ document on the vaccine EUA and approval:

Just know that BioNTech-Pfizer currently remains under EUA. This vaccine is available and companies that are implementing mandates are implementing them under the assumption that the available vaccine has full FDA approval. The available vaccine does not have full FDA approval.
However Comirnaty does have full FDA approval, but it's not available.
This conflict is very easy for companies to resolve and implement their mandates for Joe Biden under the auspices of full FDA approval; just provide Comirnaty.
Easy peasy.

Because it would be illegal and the blowback would be Biblical.
Easier to just stand pat and let cowardly corporations buckle from the fear of it happening.

Which is why crazy Nancy has snuck it into the infrastructure deal with much harsher penalties. I would hope even if passed it would be ruled unconstitutional via the 10th amendment or something.

Comirnaty is what Pfizer and BioNTech branded their vaccine as when applying for full authorization. Since that authorization back in late August, there is still not enough of the Comirnaty-branded vials for mass distribution in this country.
Because of that, the FDA renewed the EUA for Pfizer's generically labeled vaccine to facilitate continuted distribution in the meantime.
That is oversimplifying a bit, but one Pfizer vaccine having full approval (Comirnaty) is not mutually exclusive with the same vaccine under a different label having an EUA (generic version).
In short, there is nothing there. Pfizer just hasn't pumped out enough Comirnaty-labeled vaccines yet since it received the full approval. The FDA has acknowledged that, and there is no effective difference between the two labels vis-a-vis liability for Pfizer or injury recourse.

Correct. One is the marketing name for the other that was used in seeking full approval. That is your legal distinction. Just as Tylenol and walgreens-labeled acetominaphen are "legally distinct" despite being made on the same assembly line and being otherwise totally identical.

They don't have to. The FDA has already stated that the two vaccines are identical in formulation and effect, and that they are interchangeable. Hence the renewed EUA for the generic vaccine after the name brand version was approved. Its a manufacturing hurdle, and nothing more.
This naming situation that you guys are focused on is NOT why the vaccine mandate from OSHA is not being issued, or why it would be struck down with quickness
