The Food and Drug Administration is expected to approve the new Covid vaccine as early as Thursday, according to two sources familiar with the agency’s planning.

It’s the third time the vaccines have been updated to match circulating strains since the original series. The shots should be available within days.

The FDA and HHS declined to comment on the expected update.

The timing of the new vaccines — last year's rollout was in mid-September — is significant, since most of the U.S. is still caught in the summer wave of Covid illness. As of Monday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that the number of people testing positive for Covid keeps rising and that emergency room visits for Covid have been increasing since mid-May. Hospitalizations are rising, too.

Here’s what to know about the updated vaccines.

The circulating strains will have already changed again by then.

“SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19, has continued to mutate and spread. Most recently a strain called JN.1 moved swiftly to become the most widely circulating variant in the United States, accounting for an estimated 83% to 88% of all circulating variants toward the end of January.

There is NO EVIDENCE THAT JN.1 CAUSES MORE SEVERE DISEASE”....... Just that it may be more able to avoid the existing immunity present.

Wonder how much actual influenza will be seen this year? NONE? like there was in the middle of the plandemic Covid destruction?

“Here’s the best time to get it.”

The vaccine works best when injected into the left testicle or ovary on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons between three and four o’clock.

It’s science! Follow the science!

Yeah, I think I’ll pass as well. My wife and I both caught it, her twice and me once after being vaccinated and boosted. Guess we should have went with Moderna instead of Pfizer.

I have seen reports that they are combining the annual flu vaccine with the new Covid vaccine. Just be aware.
