BREAKING: CDC panel recommends third Covid vaccine dose for immunocompromised Americans

A panel of CDC advisers recommended a third dose of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine for people with weakened immune systems

About 2.7% of American adults, or 7million, are immunocompromised, according to NPR. They are at higher risk of becoming seriously ill from contracting the coronavirus as well as having a prolonged infection.
