US experts vote to approve Pfizer/BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine
US experts voted on Thursday to recommend granting emergency approval for Pfizer-BioNTech’s Covid-19 vaccine, paving the way for America to become the next country to move ahead with mass immunisation.
It comes as the worst-hit country in the world logged nearly 6,000 virus deaths in 48 hours and its overall toll was approaching 300,000.
Canada, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia have also approved it.
