And that is what will happen,” Moncef Slaoui told CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday. . “And we increase the level of communication with governors to make sure there are no mistakes or bad communications.”
Slaoui addressed reports from some states that have not yet received the promised shipments of the vaccine, saying: “We have all made the mistake or mistake of assuming that the vaccine that is actually being produced and being released is already available for shipment, when, in fact, there is a two-day delay between the time we generate a lot of data that shows that this vaccine bottle is really safe and correct and the time we can send it. ” .
“The FDA has to receive some documentation,” he added. “And it really is where this period of lag has led to differences between what was in the plan and what was really done. I think we have addressed it. “
