DISINFO: Lithuania uses unregistered COVID-19 vaccines
SUMMARY
The patients in Lithuania could get compensation due to the side effects of drugs because these side effects are known. It is a different situation with COVID-19 vaccines. The registration procedures of vaccines are not finished. Vaccines are still under research.
RESPONSE
Recurring disinformation narrative about vaccination during the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic.
Lithuania is using exclusively COVID-19 vaccines which have been granted conditional marketing authorisation by the European Medicines Agency. At the moment, this includes four vaccines: Comirnaty by BioNTech/Pfizer, COVID-19 Vaccine Janssen, Spikevax, Vaxzevria. All mentioned vaccines were registered and authorised by the European Medicine Agency.
