The earliest people to be vaccinated for COVID-19 may need booster shots as early as September, the CEOs of Pfizer and Moderna said.

What You Need To Know

    • The earliest people to be vaccinated for COVID-19 may need booster shots as early as September, the CEOs of Pfizer and Moderna said
    • Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla stressed that the company is still awaiting data from clinical trials, but he believes people will need an additional dose between eight and 12 months after receiving their second shot
    • Dr. Anthony Fauci said, too, Wednesday that he believes booster shots will be necessary within a year of initial vaccination
    • Last week, David Kessler, the White House COVID-19 response team’s chief science officer, said boosters would be provided for free to the American public

In an interview with Axios on Wednesday, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla stressed that the company is still awaiting data from clinical trials, but he believes people will need an additional dose between eight and 12 months after receiving their second shot.

“This could become sooner than later, I believe, from September, October,” Bourla said. “But this is something again that the data need to confirm.”

Bourla added that the Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention would have to sign off on the boosters.

The two-shot vaccines developed by Pfizer and Moderna received emergency use authorization from the Food and Drug Administration in December.

Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel had a similar prediction to Bourla’s, telling Axios in an email that he would recommend booster shots be administered starting in September to those who received their second doses in January. Bancel noted that the first wave of Americans to be vaccinated included high-risk populations such as the elderly and health care workers.

  1. Are they insane. So far there have been 16,355 Deaths from the vaccines. Those numbers are from just the EU, UK, US, Canada, India and Israel. The last two are not complete numbers however. For the most part probably only about 1% of all adverse events are reported.
    That might mean that about 1,635,500 may have died from the vaccines. Someone is looking outside the box. Always have to look at thing outside the box. Then there is the rest of the world and that doesn’t include how many died in other countries.
