Switzerland is in no hurry with corona vaccine: “Waiting a few months longer is a precautionary measure”

How can this cautious approach be explained? “Switzerland does not have an emergency procedure for the approval of drugs or vaccines, even in a pandemic. That’s the big difference (with the EU and the US, ed.) “, the leading Swiss vaccine expert Claire-Anne Siegrist, director of the vaccinology center of the University Hospital of Geneva, told the French news agency AFP.

“Swissmedic, the authority for new medicines, needs more data on new vaccines than other countries.”
