"The agency was set to give full approval to Novavax’s shot, but senior leaders ... are now sitting on the decision and have said the Novavax application needed more data and was unlikely to be approved soon." Potentially big red flag, including possible political interference in agency decisions.

Paging @lv4allorg.bsky.social @lvwithlove.bsky.social @lvramblings.bsky.social for help identifying this clown?
