Wilmington, Delaware (AP) — Dr. Anthony Fauci, the U.S. government’s premier infectious disease expert, hopes the Food and Drug Administration will fully approve the coronavirus vaccine by the end of the month on Sunday, potentially. He said he predicted that the movement would be promoted. There is a wave of mandatory vaccines not only in the private sector but also in schools and universities.

The FDA only allows emergency use approval of Pfizer, Modana, Johnson & Johnson vaccines, but the FDA will soon give Pfizer full approval.

The Biden administration said the federal government would not mandate vaccination beyond the federal workforce, but is increasingly urging state, local, and business to consider such a mandate. Forch, president’s chief medical adviser to President Joe Biden, said “there is a need to make mandates at the local level” to curb the spread of the virus.

“I hope — I don’t anticipate — I hope it will be within the next few weeks. I hope it will be within August,” Fauci said of the FDA’s approval of the vaccine. Said. “If so, we see the empowerment of local businesses and empower them with universities, universities, establishments, various things, etc. I strongly support it. The time has come …. Vaccines for people. We have to take additional steps to get the vaccine inoculated. “

Fauci’s comment is that the Biden administration can take any steps to encourage unvaccinated Americans to take shots as delta variants continue to proliferate in much of the United States. It will be issued when you are considering.

Biden recently approved a rule requiring federal workers to provide evidence of vaccination or to face regular inspections, mask obligations, and travel restrictions. Biden is also waiting for a formal recommendation from Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austinon and may demand vaccination from the US military.

Now that prominent companies have informed employees that coronavirus vaccination requirements are underway and some areas are adopting or considering vaccination requirements for indoor meals, the government is supporting vaccination requirements. It is louder.

United Airlines has notified employees that it must be fully vaccinated by October 25 or 5 weeks after the FDA has given full approval to one of the vaccines.

Disney and Wal-Mart have announced mandatory vaccinations for white-collar workers, and Microsoft, Google and Facebook have said employees and visitors to US offices will need proof of vaccination. Tyson Foods also announced that it will require all US employees to be vaccinated by November.

There was also pushback.

Last week, the US Supreme Court was asked by Indiana University to block plans to require students and employees to be vaccinated with COVID-19. This is the first time the High Court has been asked to consider vaccine obligations, as some businesses, states and cities have also considered or adopted vaccine requirements for workers, or to eat indoors.

Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, said on Sunday that he personally supported the obligation of vaccines to educators.

“As a matter of personal conscience, I think we need to work with our employers. We don’t oppose them about vaccination obligations,” said about 90% of AFT members already vaccinated. Weingarten, who presumed to be, said.

Dr. Francis Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health, said on Sunday, “celebrating seeing companies decide to make it mandatory for their employees,” except for approving the mandatory vaccine. Said.

“Yes, I think we should use all the public health tools we can do when people are dying,” Collins said.

Fauci and Weingarten spoke at NBC’s “Meet the Press,” and Collins appeared at ABC’s “This Week.”
