WASHINGTON, Oct 22 (Reuters) - Biden administration
officials urged eligible Americans on Friday to get booster
shots of a COVID-19 vaccine and the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention head said it may update its definition of what
constitutes full vaccination.
Currently people in the United States are considered fully
vaccinated if they have had two doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech or
Moderna Inc vaccine, or one dose of the vaccine made by Johnson
& Johnson.
"We have not yet changed the definition of 'fully
vaccinated.' We will continue to look at this. We may need to
update our definition of 'fully vaccinated' in the future," CDC
director Rochelle Walensky told reporters.
"If you're eligible for a booster, go ahead and get your
booster and we will continue to follow," she said.
