COVID-19 Booster Shots Available to All Adults; People 50+ Urged to Get One
The U.S. is opening COVID-19 vaccine boosters to all adults, and urging them for anyone 50 and older.
The decision Friday seeks to simplify what has been a confusing list of who’s eligible.
The only requirement is for an adult to be at least six months past their last dose of a Pfizer or Moderna vaccine or two months past the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
The government is trying to get ahead of rising coronavirus cases that experts fear could snowball into a winter surge with upcoming holiday travel.
