The White House COVID-19 Response Team says the Biden administration is off to a very strong start with the Covid-19 vaccine booster campaign and that booster doses are well tolerated.
About 2.78 million people have received an additional booster dose so far, Chief Medical Advisor to the President Dr. Anthony Fauci said at a routine press conference on Tuesday.
U.S. health workers began administering booster shots on Friday, immediately after the FDA and CDC recommended that certain populations receive a booster shot of Pfizer-BioNTech's COVID-19 Vaccine at least 6 months after completion of their two-dose course of the same vaccine.
