Fauci Stands by His COVID-19 Booster Shot Recommendation
Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease doctor, said Sunday the administration is sticking with its recommendation of administering Covid-19 booster shots eight months after the completion of the original shots.
But, speaking on ABC’s “This Week,” Fauci said the government’s experts will remain flexible about the recommendations as additional data comes in.
“We’re going to have to go through the standard way of the FDA looking at the data and then the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices. So although we’re sticking with eight, we’re remaining flexible that if the data tells us differently, we’ll make adjustments accordingly. But for now, we’re sticking with the eight.”
