CDC advisers back Moderna and Johnson & Johnson's COVID-19 vaccine booster shots
CBSN
Up to 99 million vaccinated Americans could soon be able to get a booster dose, after a panel of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's outside vaccine advisers voted unanimously Thursday to add Moderna and Johnson & Johnson to the agency's booster shot recommendations.
In line with emergency use authorizations issued by the Food and Drug Administration on Wednesday, the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices said all 15 million adults with Johnson & Johnson's dose should get a second shot at least two months after they were first vaccinated.
Like with Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine, adults at "high risk" who were first vaccinated with Moderna's doses at least six months ago can also receive a third shot, the committee said. That includes seniors 65 and older, as well as those vulnerable to severe COVID-19 cases or who face frequent exposure to the virus based on where they live or work.
