I agree with those saying wait for full FDA approval before making it a requirement, but I don't see how this is any different than requiring Hep B or MMR or anything else.

yeah i mean that sounds reasonable... other items from the vaccine schedule are required or implicit...we've already been through the legitimacy of 'vaccine requirements' during the flu shot protests a few years ago, sans the whole world-wide pandemic thing, which provides a tad more legitimacy.
i assume when it clears full approval (ie. non emergency auth) it will be required.
