"Does FDA approval limit their liability?"

I believe it does, although I'm doc not a lawyer. If it didn't, then I doubt the drug companies would make them. There are almost constant shortages of one or another vaccine. Making vaccines is not a very profitable enterprise. There are not too many drug companies that want to be bothered.

Whatever limits they get from FDA approval, it isn't enough. That may be why it isn't worth it to make vaccines. I think I read that at one time in the recent past there was only one U.S. company still in the vaccine business.
