鈥淭he data are about as good as it gets. ... I would be astounded if these vaccines, namely the mRNA and the J&J, didn鈥檛 get full approval,鈥 Fauci said on 

All three Covid vaccines are currently authorized for distribution in the U.S. on an emergency basis, but none of them have received full approval from the Food and Drug Administration yet.
