WHO reiterates warning against Covid boosters for healthy people as U.S. weighs wide distribution of third shots

Robert Towey:

  • The WHO strongly opposes the widespread rollout of booster shots, asking that wealthier nations instead give extra doses to countries with minimal vaccination rates.
  • The U.S. has already administered over 2 million boosters nationwide, according to the CDC.
  • An advisory panel to the FDA unanimously recommended boosters on Friday for anyone 65 and older.
