FDA approves updated COVID-19 vaccines; shots should be available in days

LA Times  

With the Food and Drug Administration’s clearance, Pfizer and Moderna are set to begin shipping millions of doses of the new COVID019 vaccine. U.S. regulators approved updated COVID-19 vaccines on Thursday, shots designed to more closely target recent virus strains — and hopefully whatever variants cause trouble this winter too. “We strongly encourage those who are eligible to consider receiving an updated COVID-19 vaccine to provide better protection against currently circulating variants,” said FDA vaccine chief Dr. Peter Marks. The agency’s decision came a bit earlier than last year’s rollout of updated COVID-19 vaccines, as a summer wave of the virus continues in most of the country. A Pfizer spokesman said the company submitted data to the FDA showing its updated vaccine “generates a substantially improved response” against multiple virus subtypes compared with last fall’s vaccine.
