The FDA on Tuesday authorized a fourth dose of Moderna or Pfizer for those 50 and up, to be given at least four months after the first booster shot.
In addition, those 12 and older considered immunocompromised may now receive a third booster, or fifth dose, of Pfizer.
Meller anticipates eligibility for the fourth shot will expand to other age groups in the future, and Walensky says the CDC, in collaboration with the FDA and public health partners, “will continue to evaluate the need for additional booster doses for all Americans.”
