CDC approves Moderna and J&J Covid vaccine boosters,

's booster. It also endorsed J&J boosters for everyone 18 and older who received the initial shot at least two months ago.

More than 39 million Moderna recipients and nearly 13 million J&J recipients are eligible for a booster dose as early as Friday, according to a slide presented by the CDC during the meeting. "These recommendations are in some ways asking the individual to decide on their underlying risk and medical condition, because the reality is they're not consulting with their physicians in all cases; they're just going out and getting booster doses," said member Dr. Jason Goldman.

Walensky addressed the committee before the vote Thursday, thanking them for their work and noting that the data around the virus and vaccines is constantly evolving.

They should let us get it if we want. If there’s plenty of vaccine, let us make that choice. 😡

No, I'm not, but only because I already got one.

I wasn't eligible, but I got away with it. 😂😂

I got my second dose in March. I’m 22 I’ve heart problems and the moderna vaccine gave me myocarditis. Should I have mi booster? I’m afraid, I don’t want to have myocarditis again if I get my booster. I really trust in science but I don’t know what to think now.

I don't care.

Got mine today teammoderna

I’m 53 and they signed me right up!

Fake scarcity. Just like the first time.

It’s kind of wild that we’re recommending booster shots when other countries are unable to even get their first one. Why are we coddling these antivaxxers who are making this whole situation worse

Super variant coming soon you need all 3 types and boosters. Get ready folks

Does this protect against the ligma variant?

so are J&J people considered fully vaccinated if they only had one shot more than 2 months ago?

No i am eligible for spacex booster.

Sure
