Third vaccine dose, in the US for all adults as early as this week ‘

The Biden Administration is preparing to authorize the third dose of the vaccine for the entire adult population, starting this week. Sources familiar with the plan report this to Axios. At the moment, according to data from health authorities, only 36% of Americans aged 65 or over have received the so-called ‘booster shot’. Among the experts, it is noted, there is no unanimous opinion on who should receive the third dose of the vaccine. However, it is now almost universally accepted that after six months of the last dose, the effectiveness of the vaccine decreases. Immunologist Anthony Fauci intervened on the question, deeming the third dose to be “extremely important”. Fauci said he was convinced that “very soon we will see a situation in which there will be no confusion as to who should or should not receive the third dose”. According to Fauci, the third dose is destined to become “part of the normal regimen and not just a bonus”.
