Vaccines are reviewed and approved by the @US_FDA. FDA can either license a vaccine or authorize a vaccine for use during a public health emergency—and the FDA’s stringent approval process is the gold standard for the rest of the world. — PolitiTweet.org
Lamar Alexander @SenAlexander
Why are some Americans saying they won’t take the vaccine? Let’s address 3 questions: Are they safe? Are they effective? Is the doctor’s office safe? — PolitiTweet.org
Lamar Alexander @SenAlexander
That means that if the @US_FDA determines that a vaccine is not safe or effective after reviewing the science and clinical trial results, the vaccine will not be distributed. — PolitiTweet.org

“This is going to be a science, medicine, data decision. This is not going to be a political decision,” he has said. — PolitiTweet.org

Despite the speed with which scientists are developing a COVID-19 vaccine, Dr. @SteveFDA, the Commissioner of the @US_FDA, said the agency is not skimping on its review of safety and efficacy: — PolitiTweet.org

Some people incorrectly believe “warp speed” means cutting corners, but it refers to the extraordinary investment in research, development, and manufacturing scale-up for a COVID-19 vaccine. — PolitiTweet.org
Lamar Alexander @SenAlexander
Dr. Francis Collins, @NIHDirector, is with us today to talk about vaccine research and development, including Operation Warp Speed, which is working around the clock to develop, manufacture, and distribute safe and effective COVID-19 vaccines as rapidly as possible. — PolitiTweet.org
Lamar Alexander @SenAlexander
The purpose of this hearing is to explore the remarkable progression science is making toward a COVID-19 vaccine, to remind parents to have their children get their childhood vaccinations, and encourage as many Americans as possible to get the flu vaccine this fall. — PolitiTweet.org
Lamar Alexander @SenAlexander
The vaccination will protect the child from getting the disease, which in turn prevents the child from infecting someone else – a pattern that has caused these diseases eventually to disappear. — PolitiTweet.org
Lamar Alexander @SenAlexander
That is why today in all 50 states and the District of Columbia schoolchildren are required to take vaccinations for diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, measles, rubella, and chicken pox before entering school. — PolitiTweet.org
Lamar Alexander @SenAlexander
But the true miracle of modern medicine is vaccines, which can prevent humans from acquiring the disease at all. — PolitiTweet.org
Lamar Alexander @SenAlexander
What is new about dealing with epidemics is modern medicine, including the ability to diagnose the disease and then to create treatments to make it easier to recover. — PolitiTweet.org
Lamar Alexander @SenAlexander
Throughout most of history the most common way to deal with epidemics was to let them run their course through populations until everyone had either been killed or recovered and therefore developed resistance against the disease. — PolitiTweet.org

Since March, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Congress has passed four major bills providing nearly $3 trillion to provide relief to families, workers and businesses, and to contain the disease, but there is more work to be done. — PolitiTweet.org

Until there are more treatments and a vaccine, such a large number of cheap and reliable rapid tests is one of the biggest steps yet toward giving Americans more confidence to go back to school, back to work and out to eat. — PolitiTweet.org
Lamar Alexander @SenAlexander
This could mean as many as one million additional tests just during October for use in Tennessee hospitals, doctors’ offices and other health care settings to help schools, colleges, child care centers and workplaces continue to safely reopen. — PolitiTweet.org
