NEWS FDA Approves Updated Covid Vaccines With New Restrictions (Gift Article)

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/health/fda-covid-vaccines-rfk-jr.html?unlocked_article_code=1.hU8.6yH0.Gn_6VUEr6RpO&smid=url-share

Ugh.

In a social media post, Mr. Kennedy said the approvals accomplished the goals of keeping vaccines available to people who want them and of demanding that companies conduct placebo-controlled trials. One new, required study would examine “post-Covid-19 vaccination syndrome” in patients, a condition that has been noted in at least one small preliminary medical report, but is still a matter of pitched debate.

Most doctors offices don't have them. That's the only reason I go to the pharmacy because they carry them.
