2 thoughts on “FDA to limit COVID vaccine approval to older adults, those with medical conditions

  1. WTH??! Isn’t it the FDA’s job to approve from a safety standpoint, issue any warings based on health conditions and not RESTRICT who can and cannot receive treatments? That is why we all have doctors we can meet with to determine the medical need or any contraindications. They need to make their approvals and recommendations and let the rest go to private industry to manage the maufacturing and distribution based on damand.
