Vaccines of the type mentioned in the other comment are not pharmaceuticals. They do not have a method of direct interference in the biochemistry of the body. The nasal vaccine would have been totally inert, and neither injected nor ingested, so it rather uniquely fell outside of regulator authority, so long as we weren't going to sell or advertise it. Oversimplified, it would have basically involved snorting inactivated spike proteins. But anything that is ingested (food) or has biochemical interactions (drugs) are regulated and illegal to produce outside of license. Only in the case of small-scale food stuffs are there safe harbor exemptions (e.g. for mom-and-pop bakeries).
