Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo said those under age 65 shouldn't get the shot, but the CDC said the benefits outweigh the risks.
Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo disagreed with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's new recommendationthat most Americans get an updated COVID-19 shot this fall.
The new recommendations were issued by the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, which includes 15 research doctors from a variety of fields, including pediatrics and epidemiology. Nine of the group's 15 members were appointed during the Trump administration. SEE MORE: Decongestant pills like Dayquil and Sudafed don't work, FDA panel says
While officials have acknowledged the newly updated vaccine could have side effects, they say benefits far outweigh the risks. One risk the CDC noted was cardiac complications among 12-to-17-year-olds. However, the CDC said that the risk of cardiac complications, including myocarditis, was 1.8 times to 5.6 times higher after COVID-19 infection than after COVID-19 vaccination.
