Booster shots for the coronavirus vaccine will be necessary at some point, but it is too early to tell how often they will be needed, Moderna CEO Stephane Bancel told "Maria Bartiromo’s Wall Street" in an exclusive interview.
Bartiromo questioned whether the variants should be considered "worrisome". "We don’t know how the variants will impact efficacy in the long term," Bancel said. "In the short term we are not worried. The B 1.1.7, the [variant] identified in the U.K., which is prominent in the U.S. now, we have seen and published that the level of antibody is similar to an old strain of the virus. We feel very good about this one."More Related News
