We apparently don't know that, which is why they are pausing to examine the safety of the vaccine.

We don't know what? We know that if a slow down causes a delay in people getting vaccines, there will be people dying from COVID.

Not if the vaccine isn't safe.

For the record, I'm not coming down on one side or the other of this argument, just pointing out what the calculus they seem to be operating under is.
