The US Food and Drug Administration’s top vaccine official overrode agency experts in May to recommend against the broad use of two Covid-19 vaccines, newly released documents show.

Nuvaxovid includes an engineered fragment of the spike protein itself—albeit one without the genetic material that causes actual disease. It’s not a totally new approach to vaccine design.

About Nuvaxovid™ (NVX-CoV2373) NVX-CoV2373 is a protein-based vaccine made by creating copies of the surface spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 that causes COVID.

Nuvaxovid is supplied in a single-dose prefilled syringe containing 0.5mL suspension for intramuscular injection; it should be stored in a refrigerator at 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F).
