oh that's great news. The article I read is below - about 3-4 weeks ago, so maybe they were able to accelerate the schedule after all.Well, the only vaccine that I've heard about is new booster due to roll out in mid-September. I'm not sure if it covers the newest highly mutated strain that is just getting started, but it covers the one that kicked off summer covid. Both strains are descendants of the Omicron variant and so the updated booster will supposedly be effective against both.
I'm on the fence whether to get it now, or a month out from our trip to Panama in mid-January.
While the new vaccines are expected to be ready by late September, it could be October before they're widely available for everyone who wants them. Two steps will still be needed before the new vaccines can make their debut in the U.S. commercial market: a green light from the FDA and new recommendations from the CDC.Aug 9, 2023
