UK looks to kick start programme for booster shots ahead of winter
- Those aged 50 and older should be given a booster shot
- Third dose should not be given until 6 months after second shot
- Preference is that Pfizer vaccine is used for booster shot
- Alternatively a half-dose of Moderna vaccine
With the UK being among the frontrunners in the vaccine race earlier in the year, they will also be among the case example for the need/efficacy of booster shots. Just something to keep an eye on in the next episode in dealing with the pandemic.
