The quote is so dumb it makes my head hurt. The CDC dies not regulate the marketing of vaccines - i.e. the claims about safety and effectiveness the manufacturer is allowed to make. That falls under the statutory authority of FDA who requires any claims of safety and effectiveness to be backed by evidence. Generally the people who talk about “no evidence of safety and effectiveness” have no idea who CDER / CBER are, no idea what an IND is, no idea how clinical trials are done, and no idea of how the FDA does postmarket surveillance / monitoring. Basically they are not informed enough to have a well reasoned opinion or argument. Somebody not even being able to name the correct federal agency - which is not obscure insider knowledge - is a sure sign they are a crank who does not know what they are talking about.
