With COVID-19 having become America’s leading cause of death and one vaccine’s short supplies igniting conflict, the Food and Drug Administration yesterday approved a second inoculation for emergency use. Developed by Moderna and the National Institutes of Health, the shot effectively doubles supplies and ships easily because it doesn’t require ultra-low-temperature storage. Meanwhile, Vice President Mike Pence and House and Senate leaders got injected with the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine that more than 128,000 Americans, mostly medical staff, have received out of 2.9 million doses reportedly shipped. California’s Stanford University has apologized after senior medical staff working from home were selected for immunization over some 1,300 high-risk resident physicians, who staged a protest.
