CTT #51: Will the definition of ‘fully vaccinated’ change with boosters?

Americans who’ve received two shots of Pfizer or Moderna, or the single-dose J&J vaccine, are considered “fully vaccinated” … for now. That could change, depending on the data, according to White House chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci. Already, some U.S. governors are pushing to update the definition to include boosters.

Last week, CDC officials urged all adults to get a vaccine booster six months after completing their original vaccine regimen.
