TL;DR Summary

The FDA's Antimicrobial Drugs Advisory Committee has voted 16-1 in favor of Pfizer's COVID-19 antiviral pill, Paxlovid, for use in adults with mild-to-moderate illness. The FDA is currently reviewing Pfizer's request to convert its EUA to a full approval, with a decision expected in May 2023. If granted full approval, Paxlovid's EUA will remain in place so that adolescents 12 years and older can continue to be treated with the drug.
