POTUS must not let FDA play games with the lives of our children

The Food and Drug Administration must not artificially delay evaluation of any vaccine to protect children under five years of age from COVID-19. Politico is reporting that FDA is "leaning toward postponing any action until the early summer, arguing that it would be simpler and less confusing to simultaneously authorize and promote two vaccines to the public, rather than green-lighting one on a faster timetable and the other down the road." CNN is reporting "Dr. Fauci confirms on the record that regulators are looking at waiting until this summer (likely June) to approve vaccines for children under 5 in order to avoid public confusion." Endangering the lives of America's children because FDA worries it cannot effectively communicate basic public health information to the American people is wholly unacceptable. If FDA persists in this murderous course of action, the agency will have the blood of dead children on its hands. All children under five years of age deserve protection from COVID-19, but especially chronically ill, disabled, and immunocompromised children desperately need protection as soon as humanly possible. President Biden, you must direct FDA to stop playing games and expedite consideration of any COVID-19 vaccine to protect America's children.
