FDA authorizes Moderna s COVID vaccine for emergency use
The Food and Drug Administration authorized a second COVID-19 vaccine for emergency use. The new Moderna vaccine is similar to Pfizer s which was authorized for use last week. It also requires two doses, but it does not need to be kept as cold as Pfizer s.
FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn says delivery could begin nationwide by Monday. Unlike the Pfizer vaccine, Moderna s is approved for use only in adults.
