Pfizer’s Trial Results, Washington’s Tax Plans, & NYC’s Mayoral Nominee Eric Adams
Pfizer and BioNTech’s Covid vaccine is safe for kids, and appears to generate a robust immune response, according to results from a clinical trial of children 5 to 11. The companies tested a two-dose regimen of 10 micrograms — about a third the dosage used for teens and adults — administered three weeks apart. CNBC’s Senior Health and Science Reporter Meg Tirrell says the company plans to submit the data to the FDA and other health regulators as soon as possible. Democratic mayoral nominee Eric Adams discusses his plans for New York City businesses, it’s police force, and Wall Street. Plus, CNBC’s Robert Frank reports on Washington’s tax debate and the “death tax.” In this episode: Eric Adams, @ericadamsfornyc Meg Tirrell, @megtirrell Robert Frank, @robtfrank Joe Kernen, @JoeSquawk Becky Quick, @BeckyQuick Andrew Ross Sorkin, @andrewrsorkin
