Debates intensify over dosing plans for authorized COVID-19 vaccines | Science | AAAS
In the United States, FDA said delaying the second dose for the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine would be “premature and not rooted solidly in the available evidence.” The European Medicines Agency, which has also authorized the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for the European Union, basically agreed, but mixed its message by adding the booster could be as late as 42 days after the first shot, noting this occurred with some people in the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine’s efficacy study. And a vaccine advisory group to the World Health Organization, which yesterday recommended that WHO put the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine on its “emergency use” list, echoed FDA’s position.
Pfizer and BioNTech released their own statement objecting to changing the intended dosing schedule, which says to give the booster shot 3 weeks after the priming injection. “The safety and efficacy of the vaccine has not been evaluated on different dosing schedules as the majority of trial participants received the second dose within the window specified in the study design,” the companies stated. “There is no data to demonstrate that protection after the first dose is sustained after 21 days.”

Detroit to expand COVID-19 vaccine distribution, use TCF Center
On Wednesday, Whitmer announced the state is moving to the next phase of distribution of the vaccine.
On Jan. 11, Michigan residents age 65 and older, first responders, frontline state and federal workers, jail staff, and childcare providers will now be permitted to receive the vaccine, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said on Wednesday.
“I urge all seniors to get the COVID-19 vaccine as soon as possible and that all Michiganders to make a plan to get vaccinated when it becomes available to you,” she added in a press release. “And as always: mask up, practice safe social distancing, and avoid indoor gatherings where COVID-19 can easily spread from person to person. We will eliminate this virus together.”
The state health department began vaccinating residents in December after the Pfizer treatment was approved.
Since then, tens of thousands of residents have been given the first dose. However, Michigan has lagged behind most states in vaccine rates, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said. However, on Wednesday, Dr. Joneigh Khaldun said Michigan had moved into the top 5.

Not Chinese, prefer Indian vaccine first, Nepal to India ahead of minister’s visit – india news – Hindustan Times (vaccine dilomacy)

During his visit, Gyawali is expected to get a clear commitment from New Delhi for supply of over 12 million doses of the coronavirus vaccines produced in India. Nepal has offers from China to supply its version of the Sinovac vaccine. During discussions with Indian officials, Nepalese officials have, however, said that the Oli government preferred to get its vaccine supplies from New Delhi.
Nepal’s ambassador to India Nilamber Acharya has already held several rounds of meetings with Indian vaccine manufacturers and government officials. His last meeting was on Tuesday with Dr V Krishna Mohan, executive director of Bharat Biotech that is producing the indigenously-developed Covid 19 vaccine.
China, which has poured millions of dollars into Nepal in recent years in the form of aid and infrastructure investment, appears to have exhausted its influence with PM Oli in recent months after it tried to pressure him to avoid splitting the ruling communist party at all costs. Beijing is lately seen to be leaning in support of the rival communist party faction led by Prachanda and Madhav Nepal.
