The US_FDA is aiming to establish a process to update the COVID-19 vaccine formula each year by June in hopes of deploying updated shots by September for fall booster campaigns similar to those for flu immunizations, abigailadcox reports.
The agency asked its vaccine advisory committee to provide input on simplifying the COVID-19 immunization schedule so that healthy adults would be advised to get an annual dose of the most updated COVID-19 shot, while certain younger children, immunocompromised people, and older adults would be recommended to get two COVID-19 shots a year.
The changes would streamline the process so that most people are advised to just get one annual COVID-19 booster, a move that the Biden administration indicated would be "sufficient" to provide protection against serious illness and death at this point in the pandemic.
