Description:

An official rollout of Covid-19 vaccine booster doses could begin within weeks, pending FDA authorization. The Biden administration has had internal conversations about scaling back the ambitious booster plan laid out by federal health officials. The Pfizer/BioNTech booster plan remains on track but one source tells CNN it may take a few weeks longer to move forward with a third dose for Modern’s vaccine. Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Dr. Anthony Fauci said it’s likely three doses are needed for full protection. Dr. Jeremy Faust is an emergency medicine physician at Brigham and Women's Hospital. Dr. Leana Wen is the former Baltimore health commissioner and is also an emergency room physician. They both join AC360 to discuss whether or not they think people should be getting a third dose.
