COVID-19 was regarded as an emergency, so the U.S. Food and Drug Administration skipped the approval process for use of the newly developed vaccines under Emergency Use Authorization. It can be said that the designs of the spike protein-based vaccines were also rushed. The COVID-19 vaccines are the only vaccines in history that were developed and distributed in the midst of a pandemic. All the other vaccines took years to be designed, tested, and approved.
Previously, when designing a vaccine, although short-term protection was welcome, long-term immune response was always the top priority. The most important immune response that a vaccine must induce is the memory T cell response.

Due to the "at the time" unknown consequences of the Virus I think the rush to get the vaccine out was justified. It has been proven to help people survive the pandemic that maybe would not have. Also, I am not sure if even given several years a better vaccine could have been developed.

What they targeted was good for a short term immune response. The process works but they need to rework it to target a different area of the virus, IF, there is justification for an annual vaccine. That remains to be seen. I think it was really good for the initial response but it is OBE now and forcing people to take it is less than useful.

Lt Col Charlie Brown I agree, now it is known to not stop the spread but reduce symptoms so the mandate is less than optimal. To each his own as they say.

Mandates are wrong. The Government allowed issue without fear of lawsuits for I’ll effects. The Government should at this point lift that authorization.
I only pray that there are no long Yemen affects on anyone. Something had to be done
