"Authorized" wasn't the same thing as
"approved"
Why it matters: In Friday's WYWW, I
included a story about the CDC issuing new travel guidelines for people who
have been vaccinated. I erroneously wrote that people who have been fully vaccinated
with "an FDA-approved vaccine" could feel safer to fly. WYWWer Bruce
Sofge emailed to let me know I should have written "FDA-authorized"
because while these vaccines have received emergency "authorization"
from the FDA to be used, they have not gone through the much longer process of
being "FDA-approved." I'm sorry for the mistake.
