US Omicron variant, Fauci sees: “Booster vaccine as soon as possible”

Anthony Fauci reiterated, in a meeting with President Joe Biden yesterday at the White House to discuss the omicron variant, that “boosters for fully vaccinated people provide the strongest protection available against covid.” “The Covid Response Team’s immediate recommendation for all vaccinated adults is therefore to get a booster dose as soon as possible.” In the next few hours Biden will provide an update on the new variant and the US response, specifies a statement from the White House. Chief Medical Advisor Fauci explained to the President that “while it will take approximately another two weeks to gather more conclusive information on transmissibility, severity and other characteristics of the variant, he continues to believe that existing vaccines are likely to provide some degree of protection against severe cases of covid “-” All adults can receive a third dose if they have been vaccinated for at least six months ago with Pfizer or Moderna or for at least two months with Johnson & Johnson. It is important that adults and children who have not received a complete vaccination get vaccinated immediately “, is the recommendation of the Covid Task Force.
