NEWS on COVID-19 in California: First COVID-19 vaccine to reach Sacramento on Monday as California, other states OK it
“The first Sacramento shipment of the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine will arrive Monday [December 14] morning via refrigerated truck at UC Davis Medical Center, marking what many say is the turning point in the 10-month pandemic, officials there said.
The vaccine won emergency use approval Friday evening from the federal Food and Drug Administration, and trucks began leaving the pharmaceutical company’s Michigan manufacturing plant Sunday morning for deliveries nationally.
A separate scientific group convened by California, Washington, Oregon and Nevada gave its blessing as well to the vaccine on Sunday morning.
‘The Western States Scientific Safety Review Workgroup today completed their concurrent and thorough review of the federal process and has confirmed the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine is safe and efficacious,’ California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office said in a joint statement.”
