US needs to approve other covid vaccines like Novavax

there is always going to be someone who has a vaccine side affect.
Novavax has no live adeno virus to transmit the spike protein instructions.
It is like the old-fashioned vaccines in how it is made.
It is being used overseas, i think India,
Philippines, and EU may soon approve it there.

Novavax is still based on the S-protein, unfortunately. I've been reading the scientific studies surrounding the vaccine, and while the N-protein confers immunity without ADE, the S-protein causes severe ADE. That's where inoculated animals start out fine, but ultimately die from the virus. It's just another vaccine that shouldn't be available, ever.

That's pretty much what I heard, but I can't remember all these terms and names.

That's what we were told, but it's not old school at all.

And the mainstream media plays a big part in info dissemination - just wondering how valid is valid, nowadays.

Just a thought…in addition to the fortune that vaccine manufacturers and their connected investors are getting and how the government is getting vaccines cheaper by granting them immunity from any lawsuits there is a requirement for emergency use status where there can be no other alternative treatment available. They don’t want an alternative available.

Phase 3 trial looks very good for Novavax, government regulators should like that and also create another choice for people to choose from.
They are applying for use in the US to the FDA, I hope the government people are more reasonable than what your saying.

Israel claims Pfizer COVID vaccine less effective against Delta variant (nypost.com)

Another reason to press our government officials to approve Novavax vaccine, as it is effective against all variants.

So Israel is now mandating a 3rd shot of Pfizer's vaccine which is not very effective against 'delta' variant. Reads like a dumb move of desperation.
I wonder if Pfizer worked out in their contract that Israel could use no other vaccines, just like they could use no other drugs as a covid treatment.
