'At this stage of the pandemic, data supports simplifying the use' of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, FDA vaccine chief Dr. Peter Marks said
"At this stage of the pandemic, data supports simplifying the use" of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, FDA vaccine chief Dr. Peter Marks saidU.S. regulators on Tuesday cleared another COVID-19 booster dose for older adults and people with weak immune systems so they can shore up protection this spring - while taking steps to make coronavirus vaccinations simpler for everyone else.
"At this stage of the pandemic, data supports simplifying the use" of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, FDA vaccine chief Dr. Peter Marks said in a statement. "The agency believes this approach will help encourage future vaccination." For many Americans, COVID-19 has become less of a health fear and more of an inconvenience, and masking, routine testing and other precautions have largely fallen by the wayside.
"We do have vaccines that are available to protect against these severe consequences, so why not use them?" he said. "They don't do any good just sitting on a shelf. So let's give them to individuals who are at the highest risk who can benefit the most."
