And "vitamins and supplements" are fine, but they won't protect you from COVID
To be fair, none of the vaccines have received full FDA approval. All have been given Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to date. This is a nuance of the FDA but there is no way we'd have the vaccines today if we required full FDA approval. That process simply takes much longer. This doesn't make the vaccine unsafe or ineffective. It just means all the steps for FDA approval have not been met.

Our government did what they were supposed to do, working with corporate America, regulatory agencies and scientists to bring a much needed vaccine to market as quickly as possible. If one cares, they can read exactly what EUA means but many very important medical advances were initially cleared this way. That is what the EUA process is for.

And yes, this is most definitely the standard of care and absolutely should be from all that I have read and continue to read.
