This was a personal Friend of his .. not something read, or I'm claiming. Just curious.
If the Vaccine is not experimental, why are the companies Exempt from lawsuit claims? ..
I can just attest to my personal experience with Jansen, thank you for the feedback.
Pfizer was given full FDA approval on 23 August 2021. Moderna received full approval June 30, 2022. Neither is being administered under an emergency use waiver. Neither is still considered an experimental vaccine. The two companies were indeed granted exemptions by the Trump administration to facilitate emergency development of the vaccine. Hard to achieve "Warp Speed" if you are bogged down in the courts.
However, and in all fairness, the FDA has been maintaining pretty tight over watch over development, and that was why additional data was demanded of Moderna slowing its approval.
No reputable insurance company can decline a claim based upon taking the FDA approved vaccines (emergency or final). I again suggest reading the Forbes article. Perhaps suggest it to your uncle.
I think because of the newness of this vaccine, and the instant transmission of "information" on the web, the purveyors of doom (all sides) have has a field day with Covid. For instance, many of us have taken yellow fever vaccines. I first took them as ordered in the military nearly fifty years ago (yes we have ordered soldiers to take vaccines for a very long time). It has a well established history of injuring and killing people. If it received half the dramatic attention the Covid vaccines have, no one would take it unless going into an actual high infection zone.

But good luck suing the manufacturer.
Where the administration (and most of the world) totally screwed this up was attempting to make the shot mandatory. The compulsory parts of the plan were put in motion based upon the early, highly flawed anticipated death and hospitalization rates. When the virus proved to be far less dangerous than initially believed, no one in either administration had the sense, or perhaps courage, to scale back the initial plan. And here we are.
