Are You a Skeptic When it Comes to the Pfizer Vaccine?

As an entrepreneur business owner, your health should be top priority. Whether our are a new startup, or have been in business for 30 years the owner of midsize company your business most likely depends on your ability to perform at your highest level of productivity, all the time. Before the pandemic so many times I saw how an illness of the owner, not only slows down production, delivery of products or services but sadly can close down the business leaving you will big medical bills, and no income. Now during the pandemic taking care of your body, protecting your DNA and supporting your immune system is not only important but critical to your business. If you have not now is the time to take charge of your health. 

If you are like me, you are probably wondering what to think about the vaccine being disbursed today throughout the U.S. today. The news reports between 27% - 50% are not taking the vaccine right away. Although you opportunity may still be months away, it's never too early to get and stay informed. 

Wondering skepticism is always good. When dealing with your inner skeptic consider this: 

1. Learn all you can, knowledge is power. Be careful who, what, and where you get your information medical information. Make sure it's from a reliable source as always, I recommend look to the medial science and experts.

2. Know who you are talking to. There is a considerable amount misinformation and lies around all aspects of the pandemic.  There are lots of agenda's circling this pandemic some are personal, others politically fired up. Remember as always you are in charge of your body, and personal health plan.

We need to continue to wear our masks, wash our hands stay socially distanced.”

What is FDA Emergency Use Authorization (EUA)?

“In an emergency, like a pandemic, it may not be possible to have all the evidence that the FDA would usually have before approving a drug, device, or a test. When there is a declared emergency, the FDA can make a judgment that it's worth releasing something for use even without all the evidence that would fully establish its effectiveness and safety. If there’s evidence that strongly suggests that patients have benefited from a treatment or test, the agency can issue an EUA to make it available.”

She said the safety monitoring plan is extensive, with a whole-of-government approach that will initially focus on the first priority groups, including active surveillance of healthcare worker recipients, with rapid follow-up of serious adverse event reports. Rubin and Longo emphasized, however, that important questions remain, such as long-term safety, ensuring that people receive their second dose, how long protection lasts, and whether the vaccine prevents asymptomatic transmission.”
