Emergency Use Authorization is just with respect to the legality to bring the drug to market (in the U.S.). It has zero to do with whether Gen Con, an airline or a school could require it (or anything else).
Disagree and not what I've read on EUA vaccines. For a Dr. Cohn at the CDC, under an EUA, “vaccines are not allowed to be mandatory. So, early in this vaccination phase, individuals will have to be consented and they won’t be able to be mandatory.” However, that statement has never been tested legally from what I've also read.And don't take my comments as a 'OMG they can't do this!' or a projection of what I would/wouldn't do personally. Officially I'm in the I don't care... their party. I just like discussing logistics/legality of everything which I find interesting.
At the end of the day, their party, whenever they set the rules I'll figure out if it is feasible for me to attend (will I be able to get a shot by then) or will even be desirable for me to attend based on the rules in play.
I do agree though, I do not envy their position whatever it is because they are damned if they do, damned if they don't with probably 25% on each side.
Good news, though, is that either choice makes 75% of folks happy, so they can't lose on the happiness scale:)...
