Keeping Up With the COVID Vaccines
Federal health officials are eyeing a switch to an annual COVID-19 booster shot beginning in the fall, but some Americans are hoping to get their next shot sooner than that.
“It’s a significant number of Americans who want to know. According to a recent survey from the Kaiser Family Foundation, 15% of all adults said they are waiting on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to issue new guidance on the next shot. If the survey were extrapolated to real life, it would mean that more than 38 million Americans are waiting on federal guidelines for another booster.
Among adults who received the updated booster shot, more than half say they are waiting on guidelines so they can be eligible for another booster. The vast majority of updated booster recipients – 86% – say getting another COVID-19 booster shot in the future is important or a top priority of theirs.”
