"I like the British, they are excellent scientists," said FaCi, before highlighting some of the possible defects of their approval process. "They just took the data from the Pfizer company and, instead of really looking at it, really carefully, they said," Ok, approves that, that's it "and they went with that."

Fauci recognized the tension in the United States.
"In the United States, there is a considerable tension of tension, to repel the credibility of safety and efficiency," the doctor said. He pointed out that if the United States had approved a vaccine as quickly as the United Kingdom, there would be a recruitment [of] an already scrown society that really has, I think in some respects in the United States, too much skepticism. on the process. "
Fauci added that this is not a judgment on how the UK vaccord has approved the vaccine, but rather a reflection of how the United States makes things differently, "not better, not better, not worse, Just differently.
