FDA grants priority review to Pfizer/BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine; decision on approval expected by January 2022 - CNN

The typical priority review process allows six months, but FDA approval could come before the goal date.

Andy Slavitt, former White House senior adviser for the Covid-19 response, told CNN earlier this month that approval could happen in July, but acknowledged it's a complex process.

"There's a lot of moving pieces. It's not as easy," Slavitt told CNN's Alisyn Camerota. "Hopefully in the next four to five weeks, and I think that will be very, very good news."

Pfizer and BioNTech completed the rolling submission for the vaccine's Biologics License Application for people ages 16 and older in May.
