Following the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s authorization of the emergency use of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has determined that pilots and air traffic controllers may receive the vaccine under the conditions of their medical certification issued by the agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To maintain the highest level of safety in the National Airspace System, the agency will require aviation professionals with medical certifications or medical clearances to observe a 48-hour period after administration of this vaccine before performing safety-sensitive aviation tasks such as flying or air traffic control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since Pfizer vaccine requires two doses, 21 days apart for maximum effectiveness, this waiting period is applied after each dose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
