WASHINGTON (ABC NEWS) — The Biden administration is expected to announce all Americans should receive a booster COVID-19 vaccination 8 months after completing their initial vaccination.
Biden administration health officials and experts are coalescing around the idea that all Americans should receive a booster 8 months after their second shot, according to a source familiar with the discussions.
Those booster shots could be rolled out as soon as mid to late September — pending FDA authorization.
The announcement could come as soon as this week.
The new timeline for the booster shots is a significant shift for the administration, which previously had been non-committal on when boosters for the majority of Americans would be needed.
This was first reported by the New York Times and Washington Post.
