Why a University of Michigan professor voted ‘No’ on Pfizer’s COVID vaccine
DETROIT – The University of Michigan’s Dr. A. Oveta Fuller specializes in immunology and microbiology.
The FDA advisory committee that recommended the Pfizer vaccine largely agreed it was safe and effective. 17 members voted for it and four voted against it.
One of those No votes came from Oveta, a virologist and viral pathogen researcher. She said she was concerned about the vaccine’s long-term impact.
