COVID-19 Vaccines

The FDA is pushing the company to submit its application based on the two-dose data for potential approval in February.

Full approval means FDA has completed the same rigorous, time-consuming review for Moderna’s shot as dozens of other long-established vaccines.

The mandate is first taking effect first in jurisdictions that didn’t challenge the requirement in court.

The company announced Wednesday that the first participant had received a dose. Earlier this week, competitor Pfizer began a similar study of its own reformulated shots.

COVID-19 vaccine makers have been updating their shots to better match omicron in case global health authorities decide the change is needed.

City health officials announced earlier this year they had given out more than 260,000 booster doses since August. This is how the numbers break down.

Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney has indefinitely postponed the vaccine mandate for the city’s unionized employees.

Three new U.S. studies offer more evidence that the COVID-19 vaccines are standing up to the omicron variant, at least among people who have gotten booster shots.

Now researchers in the U.K. have the first estimates for how long a third shot of the Pfizer vaccine will last. The findings are mixed.

The order means health care workers who are unvaccinated will have until Jan. 27 to get their first shot and until Feb. 28 for the second.

Philly’s COVID-19 vaccine requirement for indoor dining is now fully in effect. So what does this mean for restaurant operators and workers?

A two-week grace period has ended, meaning almost anyone eating indoors in Philadelphia needs to be vaccinated against COVID-19.

Now, he’s on a mission to help young people like him get access to the shot.

The Pfizer booster is available now to children ages 12 to 15, and immunocompromised kids 5 to 11 can get a third vaccine dose.
