FDA Approves First Covid-19 Vaccine

Many medical professionals have been decrying the lack of transparency throughout the entire process and that still hasn't changed:

"FDA set to grant full approval to Pfizer vaccine without public discussion of data": https://www.bmj.com/content/374/bmj.n2086?s=09

Expecting the public to have confidence in these vaccines is demanding a level of subservience and blind faith that most reasonable people are unwilling to provide.

The link you posted cites and links the FDA meeting they had for public discussion. It was almost a 9 hour meeting (which they have a youtube recording of), to say that wasn't transparent seems... inaccurate. Did you not read through the citations from your own source?
