May your celebration be a good one Happy Diwali
The name Diwali comes from Sanskirt Deepavali, which means "row of lights," the Old Farmer's Almanac wrote. The five-day festival celebrates the triumph of light over dark and good over evil. During the celebration, adherents light oil lamps and place them around their homes, praying for health, knowledge and peace

A Day of Caring in the Akron Community

Please read and learn the facts not all the social media stories.

Please read and learn the facts not all the social media stories.

We have seen a lot of confusing information on social media regarding the announcement that the FDA gave FULL approval to the COVID-19 vaccine produced by Pfizer-BioNTech for persons ages 16 and older.
With the approval package, the FDA also approved Pfizer’s new brand name for the vaccine. It will be labeled as Comirnaty as new vaccine is produced.

So, if the currently available vaccine is NOT labeled as Comirnaty…does that mean it’s not the approved vaccine?

It means that the vaccine was produced before the full approval – for that exact formula – was given to Pfizer. If you got Pfizer vaccination from us in the last year…that biologic (as the contents of the vaccine vial are referred to) are the exact same as the ones that will be produced and given a sticker that now says “Comirnaty.” You can be assured you were given a vaccine that went on to receive full FDA approval.

And…if you get the Pfizer COVID vaccine from us in the near future, it will likely not be labeled as Comirnaty since there is a plentiful amount of the vaccine available that was made before the vaccine, and it’s new brand name, were approved by the FDA. Same vaccine…old label.

Our medical director, Dr. Erika Sobolewski explained it this way, “With full FDA approval companies also get approval of naming and labeling of the approved biologic. This is why the EUA approved COVID-19 vaccines are currently labeled by the manufacturer’s name and simply COVID-19 vaccine. Full FDA approval was given to Comirnaty (the new brand name given to Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine AND Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine for ages 16 and older. It is the exact same vaccine. As new lots are manufactured the labeling will change.”

We hope this explanation helps build your confidence in the product provided by Pfizer-BioNTech. If you want to receive this vaccine, you can come to our Weekly Wednesday drive-thru vaccine clinic. As long as we have it in stock, we’ll gladly provide it to you.

Tonight we helped the Buchtel Cluster of Schools to get ready for the school year. We were joined by WISH and Global Ties of Akron. It was great collaborating with them and being part of this great night. The rain did not dampen anything. We moved into the school with the help of the Football Team. We past out an unbelievable amount of school supplies. Thank you all for supplying all of them. There is more to come.

If you have a friend that needs a vaccine please drive them over.

..Reform rabbis demand that the Biden administration and Congress expedite legal immigration status for Afghans who are now at risk. We urge CCAR members and the communities we serve to join in the humanitarian effort that will be necessary when these refugees reach safe haven in the United States, Canada, and other allied nations.
