The European Food and Drug Administration (EMA), an advisory body of the European Union (EU), recommended the U.S. pharmaceutical company Modena’s emergency use of the novel coronavirus vaccine today (6th).
In a statement that day, European Food and Drug Administration said that it recommended approval for use by carefully evaluating data on the quality, safety and efficacy of modders or vaccines.
EU Commissioner Ursula Ponderrayen tweeted today that he welcomed the EMA recommendations and said he is working to approve and distribute the vaccine as quickly as possible.
Earlier, the EU approved the use of the’Pfizer-Bioentech’ vaccine on the 21st of last month and started vaccination on the 27th.
However, local media reported that the EU parliament has voiced criticism and concern over the speed of vaccination and the availability of vaccines.
In particular, in Germany, 240,000 doses were given until the 3rd, whereas in France only 516 doses. The Netherlands starts vaccination today.
To date, Modena vaccines have been approved for use in the United States, Canada, Israel, and the World Health Organization (WHO).
