The US has approved a series of Covid-19 booster vaccines amid rising cases of coronavirus around the country, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said on Monday.
The FDA said it had approved Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines, which can be administered even to people who never previously received a Covid-19 vaccination.
Vaccinations with the new shots could begin as soon as this week, the Associated Press reported. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which must also sign off on the vaccines, is due to meet on Tuesday.
