re: Full approval for Pfizer Covid vaccine could come from FDA Monday

Myocarditis is not certain to be short term or without long term effect. Scarring of the muscles for example.

We are also predominantly looking at this in the 12-29 year olds, given the odds vs contracting Covid & severity, it’s another discussion point along with many other side effects.

Why? We have no long-term data on it yet

In reality you never have really long term data for FDA approval. The FDA process, Phase 1 to Phase 3 involves selected treatment and control groups to test medicines for approval. That process takes about 10 years. But even approved drugs still recognize some potential for side effects.

The FDA COVID-19 vaccine is based on earlier SARS research and was approved for Emergency but lets be real, the amount of people who have received it more than compensates for the controlled experiments that the usual FDA approval process has to go through.

In fact, one of the things Trump ran on was getting drugs through the FDA process quicker and in fact he got something passed for allowing people to take drugs that have been shown to have efficacy against serious disease even though they had not gone through the entire FDA process.

So I expect once this Approval is granted, LSU will mandate all faculty, staff and students have the vaccine. I think LSU's administration is already on record for that. In addition, that "could", again could, also translate to anyone entering the football stadium for a ball game.

You hope so

Scary part is we don’t know the real short term numbers.

Hell we don’t even know the real Covid numbers.

Ok, but you had the other vaccines by law if you are a Louisiana resident. If you were born before 1970 as I was, you also had the Smallpox vaccine. Small pox was eradicated via the vaccine. Yet, because the US Military has from what I remember back in the Cold war era (Reagan days) thought that a rogue state could use a bio weapon with small pox, the US has stockpiled in strategic locations around the USA enough small pox vaccine to vaccinate every American even today.

I’m not I live in New Jersey I had all my vaccines as a kid I just don’t trust this one rolled out in a rush because of fear and now being pushed for the same reason sorry don’t trust it. Plus I had covid last winter won’t take it

(no message)

I don’t accept that and neither should anyone else. I’m going to the yankee game tomorrow there’s no issue lol. I don’t agree with any sort of medical tyranny mandates for this or for anything else. It’s corporate fascism

It was always going to be approved. They are rushing it a bit in an attempt to divert the conversation from Afghanistan. COVID is all the administration has. Planning to ride it till 2022, much less 2024, seems like a doomed strategy, but I guess we'll see.

But lets put politics aside, Former President Trump, who I voted for twice, signed operation WARP speed back in May of 2020 with the goal of getting a vaccine approved in 1 to 1.5 years, which we are going to pretty much hit.

So once Trump signed COVID-19 Operation WARP speed, it was highly probable that a vaccine was going to get full approval in less than 2 years.

In fact, it was the far left Democrats who were criticizing former President Trump for his Operation WARP speed policy which is why we in fact have a Vaccine ready for approval

The Politics on both sides just drives me nutts. It is a vaccine, every American living today probably has 6 or 7 vaccines already in them.

Again, I am not looking for the politics angle in it, I am vaccinated, I talked to my Doctor who did my blood work and he said get the vaccine. I got it. Simple as that.
