VACCINE APPROVED: The FDA granted emergency use authorization for Pfizer’s vaccine for COVID-19 on Friday (December 11). The Houston area could get its first batch as early as Sunday (December 13). The authorization for the vaccine comes as the United States suffered its deadliest day in regards to the pandemic as over 3,309 people died from the virus on Friday.

According to Pfizer, here’s how the vaccine dose works: It requires two (2) doses. After the first dose, you begin building immunity after 12 days. Three weeks after you receive your first shot, you receive your second one. By day 28, you should have full immunity.

BUSINESSES PUT ON ‘WALL OF SHAME’: At a press conference Monday, Mayor Sylvester Turner announced three venues had been placed on the city’s “Wall Of Shame” including Spire Houston, Pour Behavior and Prospect Park. While Spire argues that it is not a club but rather a reception hall, Prospect Park on Fountainview had its liquor license suspended for 30 days for failing to comply with the Governor’s order that all bars must be closed.

“Back in November of 2019, the main owner had come to the realization that he no longer owned a bar,” Bret Hightower, a consultant for Spire told ABC13. “He owned a lounge/venue hall because most of the revenue was not coming from alcohol or liquor sales. It was coming from ticket sales, and then to be able to reserve your own private section.”

Greg Abbott said during an interview with KVIA in El Paso. “The bar setting doesn’t really work with a pandemic. People go to bars to get close and to drink and to socialize, and that’s the kind of thing that stokes the spread of the coronavirus.”
