The announcement that everyone has been waiting for since the pandemic began is finally here – Saudi Arabia has approved a COVID-19 Vaccine.

The Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) announced on Thursday that it has approved the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine for use in the Kingdom

The authorities held several meetings to study the data provided by Pfizer, consulted local and international experts, and reviewed the manufacturing stages and factory commitments implemented by Pfizer before coming to this decision.

The approval is also based on a review of data provided by US pharmaceutical giant Pfizer and German partner BioNTech on November 24 and confirmation that it meets the authority’s requirements in regard to efficacy, safety, stability, and the manufacturer’s commitment to applying the principles of good manufacturing practice in accordance with international pharmaceutical standards.

No date has yet been confirmed for the arrival of the vaccine in the Kingdom. The vaccine will go through a series of tests before it is cleared for use by the public.
