Well the FDA approves Pfizer for adolescents – but note this is under Emergency Authorization – IF there is a treatment which many believe there is (ivermectin) they should go through normal process for approval- https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/coronavirus-covid-19-update-fda-authorizes-pfizer-biontech-covid-19-vaccine-emergency-use

“Dr Yan: I started telling people via YouTube anonymously from last January that this virus came from the PLA lab and that they discovered coronavirus after a lot of investment. They finally got a human-target virus and it was intentionally released. Also, the Chinese government knows it and that’s why they immediately had a response after the waiting hours.”
“Dr Yan: Yes, the medical system is one of the areas targeted by using these unrestricted bio-weapons.
So basically, in that report, senior officials five-six years ago had said that this bio-weapon, this should not be a high mortality one. The secondary use is to damage the enemies’ medical system and also the society. During a community trial in Wuhan last year, Wuhan was a mess.”
