BREAKING: FDA approves emergency use authorization for Johnson & Johnson's single-shot Covid-19 vaccine

Though the Johnson & Johnson vaccine will be given as a single dose, the company is studying the impact of a second dose.

Dr. Paul Offit, a vaccine expert at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, suggested it might be difficult to communicate the change to those who only received the one dose. "With three Covid-19 vaccines now available, the number of cases and deaths around the country continuing to fall, and Congress taking steps toward approving additional critically needed economic relief, I have never been more encouraged that we might be finally turning the corner on this pandemic," he said in a statement.
