FDA approves four vaccine brands as booster dose | The Final Word
- 2 years ago
Beginning tomorrow, healthcare workers may again roll up their sleeves, this time, for booster shots.
The Food and Drug Administration approved four brands: Pfizer, Astrazeneca, Sinovac, and Sputnik.
Only Sputnik can be used for people who received a different brand for their primary shot.
The Health Department has yet to release the complete guidelines for the booster dose.
A copy of the department's letter seen by CNN Philippines indicates, the DOH is still asking hospitals for a list of fully vaccinated personnel for the last six months.
Officials are also considering additional doses for other priority groups.
