This is basically it. We'd need an approval process similar to what exists for flu shots today. I'm not versed on what that process is, but if that can happen with covid, it'll be the biggest batch of red tape cut.
- op00to 5y agopfizer and moderna have essentially filed for rolling submissions. the biggest impediment to vaccines stopping the virus is morons not getting the vaccine.
- penultimatebro 5y agoYeah, dang morons not getting the not-yet-available booster shot! I mean, those dang morons not getting the available vaccine which does nothing for transmission of the current viral variant! Eesh, well that doesn’t hold water either... Ugh this is too complicated, let’s just blame the unvaccinated anyways mmkay?
