FDA Approves First COVID-19 Vaccine
Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the first COVID-19 vaccine. The vaccine has been known as the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, and will now be marketed as Comirnaty (koe-mir’-na-tee), for the prevention of COVID-19 disease in individuals 16 years of age and older.
Approved onky for the EAU, so yiu are wrong.You would be wrong.
The Pfizer vaccine (which now has some stupid drug-company marketing name someone mentioned above) is fully approved by the FDA for persons age 16 and older. This is not an EUA. (For ages 12-15 it still is EUA.)
Don't forget all it's use in the Food & Cosmetic industries.
Let me suggest the Pfizer vaccine then. It is not experimental. (The experiment ended late last year.) It is approved for use in those age 16 or over.
I don't know why you are saying that. It is still perfectly legal in the USA to distribute the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine on Emergency Use Authorisation.
That is simply not true. The EUA for Pfizer-BioNTech is still active, and even the most cursory glance at the FDA website would show that it is still active. From the FDA news release (my bold):
Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the first COVID-19 vaccine. The vaccine has been known as the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, and will now be marketed as Comirnaty (koe-mir’-na-tee), for the prevention of COVID-19 disease in individuals 16 years of age and older. The vaccine also continues to be available under emergency use authorization (EUA), including for individuals 12 through 15 years of age and for the administration of a third dose in certain immunocompromised individuals.
OK, I'll ask again. Can you prove that a single person has received a 'Comirnaty' branded vaccination from a vial labelled as 'Comirnaty'?
I suspect that the only vaccines on offer will be Pfizer-BioNTech on EUA.

EMERGENCY USE AUTHORIZATION (EUA) OF
THE PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE TO PREVENT CORONAVIRUS DISEASE 2019 (COVID-19)
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to permit the emergency use of the unapproved product, Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, for active immunization to prevent COVID-19 in individuals 12 years of age and older and to provide a third dose to individuals 12 years of age and older who have been determined to have certain kinds of immunocompromise.
COMIRNATY (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA) is an FDA-approved COVID-19 vaccine made by Pfizer for BioNTech. It is approved as a 2-dose series for the prevention of COVID-19 in individuals 16 years of age and older and is also authorized for emergency use in individuals 12 through 15 years and to provide a third dose to individuals 12 years of age and older who have been determined to have certain kinds of immunocompromise.
The FDA-approved COMIRNATY (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA) and the EUA-authorized Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine have the same formulation and can be used interchangeably to provide the COVID-19 vaccination series.1
They are EAU approved, only.

Now it’ll turn into “no long-term studies”.You are completely incorrect. The standard 2 shot regimen for 16+ year old people is under full autorisation. EUA applies to the 12-15 year olds as well as 3rd booster shots for some people.
The EUA is for ages 12 and up. The full approval is for ages 16 and up. That’s the reason there are two separate approvals.From the FDA:

Nope. According to the material published on the FDA website, you are wrong. I quote the FDA below (my bold):Only for the indications where it has been so authorised, which in the case of this vaccine is the 12-15 yr olds and some other indications such as boosters. Anyone 16+ comes under the full authorisation rules.
Which is exactly what I just said.
I don't know. Can I? What would that proof look like? If I spent the next 15 minutes hunting down a youtube video of someone being vaccinated in such a way that the bottle label was clear it is well within the bounds of expectation that you would claim the video was doctored.
As I have said, you suspect incorrectly. There no longer exists an EUA for the intial shots in the 16+ age group.
Nope. According to the material published on the FDA website, you are wrong. I quote the FDA below (my bold):
If I recall correctly, The Epoch Times is mainly run by people who used to live in China or have Chinese heritage, and are concerned about the political direction that the US is taking. And as they've experienced a totalitarian communist regime, or are closely related to those that have, I'd expect them to have a valid outlook in that respect.Ok, I see what you mean, but the conversation has to stop, you are quoting from that Chinese cult propaganda outlet, so that's the end of that.
Approval by a government agency invested in making sure the approval happens quickly due to political pressure does not mean much to me. What I consider proof is what we have seen in the real world not in the world of bureaucratic approvals. That being the case , I have seen no reason to consider any of the vaccines to be in any way close to as dangerous as the virus they were designed to combat.Let me suggest the Pfizer vaccine then. It is not experimental. (The experiment ended late last year.) It is approved for use in those age 16 or over.
