Biden administration considers booster shots for COVID vaccine at 5 months, up from the current federal government timeline of 8 months.
President Joe Biden on Friday said he spoke earlier in the day with Dr. Anthony Fauci, his top adviser on the COVID-19 pandemic, about administering booster shots to people who have been fully vaccinated for five months, up from the current federal government timeline of eight months.
Biden made the remark while meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, saying Bennett had advised giving boosters earlier. White House press secretary Jen Psaki later said the guidance from health officials hasn't changed, but federal regulators reportedly are poised to approve boosters at six months, rather than the eight-month gap they previously announced.
