Why the CDC and FDA Just Slapped Down Pfizer and Moderna
Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) and Moderna (NASDAQ: MRNA) have enjoyed good working relationships with both the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA granted quick approvals to both drugmakers' COVID-19 vaccines last December. The CDC has encouraged Americans to receive both vaccines.
However, some might now think that the honeymoon is over. Pfizer and Moderna have recently expressed support for booster doses. The CDC and FDA issued a joint public statement last week that appeared to contradict this view. Here's why the two federal agencies just slapped down Pfizer and Moderna.
