So they can focus in continue saving millions of lives since December, providing a solution that works in a record short amount of time. It seems a fair deal for society

That's sort of how I explained it to a friend. Manufacturers would not be willing (or allowed) to distribute without the full trials and recognition by the FDA. Where the government, on behalf of the sovereign, decides "no, we NEED it now" the full authority for the risks is declared not by the manufacturer but by the sovereign. Thus, in their great need and power, the sovereign gives them immunity in their actions in writing via the EUA. It's good to be the king...but who laid the crown?

>So they can focus in continue saving millions of lives since December Not sure. Are the researchers working on the vaccine are the one handling the claims? I mean, whats this thing about "focusing on saving lives" got to do with being not responsible for the product? >It seems a fair deal for society Only if these companies act in good faith. Knowing what we know about Pharmaceutical companies, It is beyond me why anyone would think they would.. If you said that "we were desperate so we have to take the risk of them possibly behaving bad", then it would have made much more sense.
