The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Monday approved Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine for the prevention of the virus that causes COVID-19 for all Americans 18 and older, despite the vaccine providing little protection against the illness since the emergence of the Omicron virus variant.
The FDA said the vaccine was 93 percent effective in preventing the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, which causes COVID-19, known as SARS-CoV-2.
