U.S Authorizes Covid Boosters For All Adults: FDA

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said on November 19, that Pfizer and Moderna Covid vaccination boosters are now available to all adults aged 18 and up. Boosters were previously available only to the immune-compromised elderly, and those at high risk of serious diseases. The decision "helps to provide continued protection against Covid-19, including the serious consequences that can occur, such as hospitalization and death," said acting FDA commissioner Janet Woodcock.
