Summer COVID Wave Prompts Early Emergency Approval of New Vaccines
Briefly

This summer's COVID-19 wave has gotten so bad - even worse than winter peaks in some regions - the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced they are approving two vaccines early, but leaving one out for now.
'Vaccination continues to be the cornerstone of COVID-19 prevention,' Peter Marks, M.D., Ph.D., director of the FDA's Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, said in a statement. 'These updated vaccines meet the agency's rigorous, scientific standards for safety, effectiveness and manufacturing quality.'
Given waning immunity of the population from previous exposure to the virus and from prior vaccination, we strongly encourage those who are eligible to consider receiving an updated COVID-19 vaccine to provide better protection against currently circulating variants.
