Last year it was announced that the formula for the Pfizer vaccine would be distributed under the name Comirnaty.
This has caused some confusion for people thinking that the Pfizer vaccine wasn’t actually FDA approved.
The formula for Pfizer and Comirnaty are exactly the same, and places that still have the Pfizer labeled vaccines are permitted to use it as the FDA approved formula, because they are the same.
FDA approval was announced Aug. 23.
