US opens virus booster shots to all adults
By LAURAN
NEERGAARD,
MATTHEW PERRONE
and MIKE STOBBE
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The
U.S. on Friday opened
COVID-19 booster shots
to all adults and took the
extra step of urging people
50 and older to seek one,
aiming to ward off a winter
surge as coronavirus cases
rise even before millions
of Americans travel for the
holidays.
Until now, Americans
faced a confusing list of who
was eligible for a booster
that varied by age, their
health and which kind of
vaccine they got fi rst. The
Food and Drug Administra-
tion authorized changes to
Pfi zer and Moderna boosters
to make it easier.
Under the new rules, any-
one 18 or older can choose
either a Pfi zer or Moderna
booster six months after
their last dose. For any-
one who got the single-dose
Johnson & Johnson vac-
cine, the wait already was
just two months. And people
can mix-and-match boosters
from any company.
“We heard loud and clear
that people needed some-
thing simpler — and this, I
think, is simple,” FDA vac-
cine chief Dr. Peter Marks
said.
The Centers for Dis-
ease Control and Preven-
tion had to agree before the
new policy became offi -
cial late Friday. CDC Direc-
tor Dr. Rochelle Walensky
endorsed a recommendation
from her agency’s scien-
tifi c advisers that — in addi-
tion to off ering all adults a
booster — had stressed that
people 50 and older should
be urged to get one.
“It’s a stronger recom-
mendation,” said CDC
adviser Dr. Matthew Daley
of Kaiser Permanente Col-
orado. “I want to make sure
we provide as much protec-
tion as we can.”
The CDC also put out a
plea for those who had pre-
viously qualifi ed but hadn’t
yet signed up for a booster to
quit putting it off — saying
older Americans and peo-
ple with risks such as obe-
sity, diabetes or other health
problems should try to get
one before the holidays.
The expansion makes
tens of millions more Amer-
icans eligible for an extra
dose of protection.
