I believe the purpose of regulatory agencies is to hold corporations accountable. Yes, you can sell your product for money on the u.s market, but we need proof that Americans are better off as a result.
Regulators keep corporations honest.
This decision is a failure ....๐งต

Children face the absolute lowest risk from the virus. And now, in America at least 86% of children have had and recovered from COVID-19, combined with novel strains like omicron, the risk to a child going forward is much lower than it was in the beginning, when it was low
It is inappropriate to use emergency use authorization, a more flexible regulatory standard, for situation that is in no way shape or form an emergency.
That benefits Pfizer
It hurts the American people

Pfizer is on track to make 100 billion from their covid-19 products. I have no objection to money made from making good products, and believe me, the first shot in an older person was just that.
But I do have an objection to making that money with no proof in perpetuity

Pfizer has no proof that vaccinated, healthy people benefit from Pax
The FDA was the only agency with the regulatory heft to make them do a study in vaccinated people, but it failed.
For most people who got it We have no credible data

It's almost as if the people pulling the strings are really working for Pfizer and not the American people. I find it disgusting and inappropriate.
Political appointees want to keep corporations happy, because they donate to campaigns.

Next, Pfizer benefits greatly from perpetually boosting very young people. That's the way they can guarantee their billions to come for years to come.
But it's up to FDA regulators to make sure they run clinical trials that actually show those additional doses are beneficial.

You have to do large randomized control trials showing that each yearly booster further lowers the risk of severe disease or hospitalization in young populations.
Tell me that sample size is too large
That just means the effect you're chasing is trivial

Moreover, it's not too large. The company has literally a hundred billion reasons they can do it
What the FDA has done w bivalent boosters, and vaccination in children is travesty. They are not holding corporations accountable They're shoveling taxpayer money into borla's pocket

European nations are focusing on boosting the elderly. And even there there is uncertainty. Is it 70 and up, 60 and up, 50 and up. We need a large-scale randomized trials there as well. No one is doing these studies.
Observational studies are ill suited to draw causal conclusions about the efficacies of products because the people who rush to get these products are different than those who do not rush. You cannot correct for those covariates. If you could, we wouldn't do randomize studies.
This isn't surprising. The best opportunity to fleece the American people is when they're scared. When they're worried about covid, that's when you can ram through yearly shots with no credible evidence.
Let me be clear, antibody titers are not credible evidence. They have a weak correlation in some circumstances, and an unknown correlation in others. And they have never been properly validated as a surrogate for this disease for multiple dose. End of story.
But the biggest failure is the mainstream media.
Can you imagine thousands of journalists and they just all spoon feed the rhetoric of the White House to the American people. Not a single one of them has the courage to push back on this multi-billion dollar fleecing

Journalism is supposed to be a check-in balance in the system. Ashish Jha is not qualified to make these decisions. And his rhetoric is frankly distorted and at times outright falls. You need to hold him accountable.
As time goes on, the error of this decision will just get bigger. People think clearly when they are calm. They can be cheated when they are scared. There are still a lot of people scared. But you can't be scared forever. Truth will come out. Evidence-based medicine always wins.
