Atlantic Council CEO Frederick Kempe said, “There was some fake news during this period of time about the vaccines, all sorts of conspiracy theories.

Pfizer and BioNTech seek FDA authorization for Covid-19 vaccine booster for all adults –Pfizer and BioNTech said on Tuesday they’re seeking emergency use authorization from the US Food and Drug Administration for a Covid-19 vaccine booster for all individuals age 18 and older. The companies are seeking an amendment to the existing EUA for booster doses for some adults.

The companies said the submission is based on results of a Phase 3 trial involving more than 10,000 participants; it found boosters were safe and had an efficacy of 95% against symptomatic Covid-19 compared with the two-dose vaccine schedule in the period when the highly transmissible Delta was the dominant strain. Pfizer released the booster efficacy data last month; it has not yet been peer-reviewed or published. – READ MORE 

Vanderbilt University Medical Center Takes Woman Off Transplant List for Refusing COVID-19 Vaccine –Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) deactivated a 23-year-old woman from the transplant list, where she had been waiting since June 2018 on dialysis for a lifesaving kidney transplant, because she isn’t vaccinated against COVID-19. The woman, Codie Samuelson, now has six months to get listed for the transplant at another hospital or be removed entirely.

Samuelson was born with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) and diagnosed at two months old with end-stage kidney failure. Samuelson’s father was the first to give her a kidney, but her body rejected it; it was the kidney from her mother that took, ultimately lasting her 18 years. Then, three and a half years ago, Samuelson’s body began rejecting that kidney. Samuelson has been on dialysis three times a week since then. Though she is considered high-risk for COVID-19, Samuelson decided not to get the vaccine based on the advice of three of her nurses and her own medical concerns. – READ MORE
