[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These restrictions in vacccine access are awful.  Antivaxxers can make decisions about their own bodies and those of their kids, but they shouldn't let their anti-science paranoia prevent Americans who need and want those vaccines from getting them.[/quote]

They're approved. Anyone can get one with a prescription. At least, once they're distributed to doctors offices.[/quote]

They aren’t. Please read the last few pages, or a reputable news source. [/quote]

DP here but what do you mean? This is from NPR. Is that reputable?

The Food and Drug Administration approved the next round of COVID-19 vaccines Wednesday, but imposed new restrictions on who's eligible to get them.

Right. As the article says, people can get a prescription for the vaccine from their doctor. It might be "off-label," but off-label prescriptions are very common.

Separately, you might need to have it administered at a doctor's office, due to regulations on pharmacists in some states.

But full FDA approval means anyone can get  these.[/quote]

No, they need ACIP to make the final approval. They are gone. They used to post the meeting agenda, open up comments, and broadcast the meeting with public able to make live comments before making the final approval. It was a great system. [/quote]
