Right on time and well ahead of the standard two year observation period (ya know, for a little thing called safety), the FDA approved Pfizer’s COVID vaccine. And it was done without holding a formal advisory committee as required by their own standards.
But there is one critical fact the press neglects to tell you: FDA approved Pfizer Comirnaty vaccine; NOT the Pfizer-BIoNTech COVID vaccine currently under EUA that millions around the world have already taken.
In fact, the FDA stated the EUA vaccine should remain unlicensed…without further comment.
And if everything COVID wasn’t weird enough, the FDA added this inexplicable footnote: The two vaccines (licensed and EUA) can be used “interchangeably”.
Then in the next footnote declares the two vaccines are “legally distinct”.
If this isn’t the highest order of government cross talking double-speak, I don’t know what is.
The news is giving this difference NO coverage.
HR departments around the world, having prepared the requisite notices long ago somehow knowing in advance FDA approval was around the corner, wasted no time releasing mandates for its work force the same week.
The takeaway: if you are served with a mandate, demand to see the vial and ensure it reads Comirnaty. If it reads Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, or Janssen, it’s an experimental product under EUA and you cannot be required to take it; you have the right to refuse.

Japan is angry over US military dumping “treated water” into the ocean in Okinawa.

If ain’t the pot calling the kettle black, Japan.
The same ridiculous country that claims the Fukushima radiation water into the ocean is a ‘treated water’.
US military, please dump as much as you can, they are harmless treated water.
In other somewhat belated news, South Korea has cancelled the port call of the UK aircraft carrier, HMS Queen Elizabeth.
https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/nation/2021/08/356_314444.html
Instead, exchanges with the ROK Navy will be held at the East Sea and consist of “humanitarian” and “disaster -relief” exercises.
It will be interesting to see whether or not the HMS Queen Elizabeth makes its port call in Yokosuka as scheduled.
Because this will mean the Moon administration probably cancelled the port call because of possible blowback from North Korean and the PRC.
And what sort of “humanitarian” naval exercise does one do in the high seas?

Drowning Biden supporters depressed by the reality that Trump was a better president by every possible metric.
(Unless you are a kiddy-toucher, in which case Biden comes out on top for “living my dream”)
CH for the win.
