00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:03.440
We have some breaking news at this hour johnson and johnson single

00:00:03.440 --> 00:00:06.990
...corona virus vaccine has officially received emergency

00:00:06.990 --> 00:00:11.310
use authorization from the fda is now the third call that nineteen

00:00:11.310 --> 00:00:15.870
vaccine authorized in the united states joining me now with more on this big development

00:00:15.870 --> 00:00:22.370
nbc news correspondent allison barber...tell us what this all means.

00:00:22.370 --> 00:00:25.980
At least...yeah, so, as you said this is a big deal this is the third

00:00:25.980 --> 00:00:30.570
...nineteen vaccine that we have seen authorize this obviously different and the other two and

00:00:30.570 --> 00:00:35.200
that is considered to be much more accessible because you only need one

00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:40.120
dell submit and also it doesn't have to be stored at super cold temperatures

00:00:40.120 --> 00:00:45.020
as the other team do initially handicap that refrigerated temperatures I want to review some of

00:00:45.020 --> 00:00:50.180
the statement that is coming from the fda jets now this authorization allows

00:00:50.180 --> 00:00:54.870
...tune and older to be able to use this vaccine inference to

00:00:54.870 --> 00:00:59.670
be distributed in the us for use in individual eighteen-and-over the

00:00:59.670 --> 00:01:04.760
...acting fda commissioner says this...quote the authorization of this

00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:09.540
maxine expand the availability of vaccines the...medical prevention methods

00:01:09.540 --> 00:01:14.300
for covert nineteen to help us in the fight against this pandemonium which has claimed over

00:01:14.300 --> 00:01:19.050
half a million lives in the united states so here's what's going to happen next we

00:01:19.050 --> 00:01:22.380
expect some laurel at some point for

00:01:22.380 --> 00:01:27.360
...advisory group ...before we can actually see these vaccines

00:01:27.360 --> 00:01:31.570
...out and start making their way towards the appropriate healthcare areas that

00:01:31.570 --> 00:01:34.940
they can get examples of that cc advisory group

00:01:34.940 --> 00:01:39.940
there the group that meets and they put out recommendations in terms of how this vaccine should

00:01:39.940 --> 00:01:44.260
...and who it should be used for remember they put out...recommendations in the

00:01:44.260 --> 00:01:48.440
...saying hey this...first go to individual sixty five and older

00:01:48.440 --> 00:01:51.530
than people with no high-risk things like that so that

00:01:51.530 --> 00:01:55.840
is a necessary step before we can actually see the vaccines make their way out

00:01:55.840 --> 00:02:00.170
of johnson and johnson they have said initially this first week once they

00:02:00.170 --> 00:02:04.830
are able to get those maximum having may expect to have four million doses

00:02:04.830 --> 00:02:09.370
out available nationwide and then they will wrap it up and ultimately towards

00:02:09.370 --> 00:02:14.350
the end of march they say they'll have two million doses out available we expect it to

00:02:14.350 --> 00:02:19.300
...out from the building behind me actually and that could happen given

00:02:19.300 --> 00:02:23.820
...the...advisory board is able to...we expect to happen sometime tomorrow

00:02:23.820 --> 00:02:28.700
most likely will see that start moving on monday but again as you said that her

00:02:28.700 --> 00:02:31.710
hoping nineteen vaccine to be approved in the united states

00:02:31.710 --> 00:02:34.790
a really big deal because this is a single dell's

00:02:34.790 --> 00:02:38.810
...comes at a time when we have seen more control just strands

00:02:38.810 --> 00:02:43.290
...nineteen develop in new york and california so this is another example

00:02:43.290 --> 00:02:48.760
of a vaccine coming and a time when it is critical as it was for the last two as well but the difference here is that

00:02:48.760 --> 00:02:53.390
this vaccine based on what experts and sad is that it will be something that

00:02:53.390 --> 00:02:58.020
can get two people flipper and hopefully more people sooner

00:02:58.020 --> 00:03:02.980
...maybe get us closer to the end of this panoramic always here so again if you're just joining

00:03:02.980 --> 00:03:07.430
us now the fda has approved johnson johnson's single dose vaccine

00:03:07.430 --> 00:03:12.150
for emergency use this is a single shot it can be stored for three months at

00:03:12.150 --> 00:03:17.020
normal refrigeration temperatures can you tell me alison what they're telling you about

00:03:17.020 --> 00:03:23.760
how significant that is in terms of being able to get this to american people?

00:03:23.760 --> 00:03:26.930
I mean that is critical...we have heard people talk about the

00:03:26.930 --> 00:03:30.840
idea potentially being able to take this just door-to-door and,

00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:33.590
get it to people that way I mean I have seen.

00:03:33.590 --> 00:03:38.300
Initial reception of the maternal vaccine I was at a hospital in a

00:03:38.300 --> 00:03:43.600
rural part of michigan where...and what's kind of the challenges in the process of

00:03:43.600 --> 00:03:46.670
one that didn't necessarily need to be that was a little easier still

00:03:46.670 --> 00:03:51.450
needed to be cold but not as cold as the pfizer vaccine that had so many challenges

00:03:51.450 --> 00:03:56.350
for particularly rural communities where they didn't necessarily have the resources

00:03:56.350 --> 00:04:01.240
...items...big refrigerators to keep a vaccine store so they were having

00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:05.840
a kind of finagle ways and time it out just right so they could make little shipments to other

00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:10.380
more rural communities and make sure that they're getting as many people vaccinated as possible

00:04:10.380 --> 00:04:15.410
but difference,... with something like this...mean obviously it's the simplicity of just

00:04:15.410 --> 00:04:20.480
having to administer one shot is very easy but that cold temperature thing is a really,

00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:24.040
really big deal I mean initially when we saw the pfizer maxine get approved and

00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:27.720
I was hospitals watching that I met so many different

00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:32.280
...talking about how they had ordered additional big super

00:04:32.280 --> 00:04:37.920
cold fraser's because they had been...things medication at refrigeration

00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:43.070
levels which is more normal but they did not have all of those huge refrigerators and those are really,

00:04:43.070 --> 00:04:44.200
really expensive so in

00:04:44.200 --> 00:04:48.930
other smaller communities where they didn't have the money getting all that in order buying more

00:04:48.930 --> 00:04:54.020
that's not something everybody can do so the fact that this can actually just be stored in a refrigerated

00:04:54.020 --> 00:04:58.660
...you can't I don't think overstate how big of a deal that is and how big of a danger

00:04:58.660 --> 00:05:03.020
that is particularly and communities and hospitals that are role or communities

00:05:03.020 --> 00:05:04.970
...hospitals where they don't have a ton of

00:05:04.970 --> 00:05:09.340
health care resources are access to some of those big fancy freezers that they can

00:05:09.340 --> 00:05:13.890
get best vaccines and hopefully very quickly get it to people and also not have to

00:05:13.890 --> 00:05:18.800
tell people hey we know you took time out of work we know you use gas money to come here

00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:23.130
to get the vaccine come back again...free for weeks the second one it's one and done?
