    People who write anti-vax material on the internet are not gonna change their minds no matter what. But ordinary citizens? Yes, I think FDA approval will help persuade some people.https://twitter.com/KevinWGlass/status/1429802689764921347 …

    So now we'll see vaccine administration jump pretty sharply because the "full FDA approval" crowd definitely wasn't just using that as a reasonable-sounding excuse for irrational antivax hysteria, right https://www.kff.org/coronavirus-covid-19/poll-finding/kff-covid-19-vaccine-monitor-june-2021/ … pic.twitter.com/q5JfGdwLK4

        There is still a huge difference between the 2 mRNA 'vaccines' and the J and J. That's enough for me to wait.

        Maybe not, but it will encourage more businesses and other organizations to require the vaccine, which in turn will force the hand of those who said they were waiting for full approval.

        I dunno. I think a healthy percentage of the people who referenced lack of FDA approval we’re using it as a shorthand for the rushed nature of the rollout, so I’m not sure this will help.

        A few fence-sitters will come down on the side of the vaccine. Will be a relatively small number though. The real benefit from full approval will be employers, private and government, that will now require vaccination as a condition of continued employment.

        The triple blind study of the vaccine, required for approval, won’t be completed until May 2023.

        It’s coming at a time when almost everyone knows personally of someone suffering or having died from the virus.
