Interestingly in the USA the COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers cannot market their vaccines as “safe and effective” because they can only do that with a license from the FDA. Everything is still distributed under “emergency use” authorization. All marketing is done by government parties. Pfizer and Moderna actually do both have licenses for their adult doses (not boosters or for under 16) but do not take advantage of them. My latest guess for why they don’t is that if they did they could be sued for false advertising.
