ZURICH (Reuters) – Swiss authorities said an emergency approval for vaccines, such as the coronavirus vaccine from Pfizer and BioNTech, was not a legal option in Switzerland.
“Swissmedic works closely with international partner authorities and reviews all applications for COVID-19 vaccines as a matter of urgency and in a ‘rolling’ procedure,” the Swiss agency for therapeutic products said in a statement on Friday.
