NBC News: Pfizer, BioNTech ask FDA for full approval of Covid-19 vaccine
If granted, the Pfizer vaccine would be the first in the U.S. to be fully approved.
Full approval could help some of those with vaccine hesitancy.
It's with great pride that @Pfizer and @BioNTech_Group have initiated our Biologics License Application (BLA) with the @US_FDA for approval of our #COVID19 vaccine to prevent disease in individuals 16 years of age and older: https://t.co/Tv1jlePlMU
