Yeah, I agree. The fact that's still only being used per EUA makes the whole thing really fucking crazy. I've heard they're thinking they'll have at least one of these vaccines fda-appeoved in a more traditional sense within the year. Kinda makes you wonder if they're just holding out for that - bc all the proposed vax mandates have sorta been half measures so far. Lot of talk with nothing actually backing it yet.
What if they get their traditional approvals, and all of it is no longer considered emergency use, or experimental?
I'm not sure they can do that in any reasonable amount of time due to the requirements for determining long term effects. I think phase 4 testing takes something like 10 years. Who knows, they're changing laws like crazy right now in order to ram this stuff through. The fact that the EU is trying to end the Nuremburg code is terrifying.
