Yes, the FDA regulates vaccines to ensure their safety, efficacy, and quality. Vaccines must undergo rigorous testing in clinical trials before they can receive approval or emergency use authorization. The FDA reviews data from these trials and monitors vaccine manufacturing processes. Additionally, the FDA continues to oversee vaccines post-approval to ensure ongoing safety and effectiveness.
Poorly! When a drug company comes up with a new drug many studies and trials must be done on the drug first and then passed by the FDA. Lately it appears the FDA is not doing their job!
Yes, the FDA does regulate dentures. Dentures are classified as medical devices and therefore fall under the FDA's jurisdiction. The FDA sets standards and regulations for the manufacturing, labeling, and marketing of dentures to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
The FDA does not... regulate how crops are grown. determine a selling price for produce. send health inspectors to restaurants. ensure animals are killed humanely. support or denounce animal testing. approve everything that comes its way. operate grocery stores. operate pharmacies. pass laws about food production or drug production. condone using medications that are not prescribed to you.

In the US it was the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and in Europe it was the European Medicines Agency (EMEA) who approved the H1N1/09 vaccines for use.
The FDA
The FDA governs many types of products. They govern everything from food safety to vaccines. Over the counter pharmacy drugs and tobacco products are also governed by them.
The FDA will be allowed to regulate tobacco products now, like it can with all other food and drugs.
Only if a medical claim is made or if the product is a drug. The market is pretty much unregulated, and the FDA only steps in to correct the worst abuses.
