The UK’s medicine regulator has attempted to reassure the public of the safety of the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine after three people fell ill after getting the jab.
Dr. June Raine, chief executive of the UK’s Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), said late Wednesday, “You can be completely confident that this vaccine has met the MHRA’s robust standards of safety, quality, and effectiveness.”
