Original title: fudge supports compulsory vaccination for primary and secondary school students over the age of 12
[Xinhua News Agency] Tony, 29, said that in view of the fact that the COVID-19 mutant of the delta virus continues to spread in the United States, he supports the introduction of a new mandatory vaccine for primary school students in Changan.
In the state of the Union program broadcast on CNN that day, Fudge said he believed it was a "good idea" to force students to receive the new crown vaccine. He pointed out that there is a precedent for the authorities to require students to be vaccinated, which is not a new measure.
However, the United States has not yet approved the new crown vaccine for children under the age of 12. Reuters reported on the 29th that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration will summarize data in early October to judge whether the new crown vaccine is suitable for people aged 5 to 11, citing Fudge's earlier speech on ABC's this week program.
Fudge believes that before the holiday season after Thanksgiving, the FDA is "more likely" to approve Pfizer vaccine or Modena vaccine for people aged 5 to 11.
Burbio, an American information website that provides the opening of schools in the United States, shows that dozens of schools in the United States have postponed the opening time or closed after the opening of school in August due to the epidemic.
The U.S. drug administration fully approved the use authorization of Pfizer vaccine on August 23. This is the first new crown vaccine officially approved for use in the United States for vaccination of people over the age of 16. Pfizer vaccine can continue to be used under emergency use authorization, including vaccination for people aged 12 to 15. According to Pfizer staff, the company is waiting for the FDA to expand the emergency use authorization of the vaccine to people aged 5 to 11（ (end) (Wang Yijun)
