Public stakeholder meeting: approval, safety monitoring and impact of COVID-19 vaccines in the EU

This third public meeting updated EU citizens about the continued assessment, approval and safety monitoring of COVID-19 vaccines, and their expected impact at community level.

It covered: 

• COVID-19 vaccines approved in the EU and those currently under review;
• post-authorisation activities, including emerging safety data since EU authorisation of the first COVID-19 vaccines;
• ongoing work to address new variants;
• the expected impact of COVID-19 vaccination on our society;
• transparency and the publication of clinical data for COVID-19 vaccines.

The event also allowed the public and stakeholders to further inform EMA of their needs, expectations and any concerns.
