Are we seeing a coordinated rebellion against Trump's disinformation?

Dr. Stephen Hahn, commissioner of the US Food and Drug Administration, on Wednesday made a commitment to America that “FDA will not authorize or approve a vaccine that we would not feel comfortable giving to our families.”

“FDA will not authorize or approve any Covid-19 vaccine before it has met the agency's rigorous expectations for safety and effectiveness. Decisions to authorize or approve any such vaccine or therapeutic will be made by the dedicated career staff at FDA, through our thorough review processes, and science will guide our decisions," Hahn promised the Senate Health Committee.

“FDA will not permit any pressure from anyone to change that,” he committed.

Hahn said he “will fight for science” and “will put the interest of the American people before anything else.”
