Now an FDA advisory panel has unanimously recommended booster doses for the Johnson & Johnson vaccine; the advice is for all people over 18 to get the shot, even after just two months. The FDA is expected to tell those who received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine that they can get a Pfizer or Moderna shot as a booster.
On ABC News’ This Week Sunday, Dr. Anthony Fauci suggested everyone should have expected the Johnson & Johnson vaccine to be a two-shot regimen — which is not really what anyone was expecting or saying when the J&J vaccine was unveiled in February. Fauci said this weekend that, “I think that they should feel good about it, because what the advisers to the FDA felt is that, given the data that they saw, very likely, this should have been a two-dose vaccine to begin with.”
Except, back at the end of January, Fauci was telling people that the advantage of Johnson & Johnson was that it only took one dose: “A vaccine that’s inexpensive, that’s a single dose, and that has no cold chain requirements — that’s pretty good!” he told CNN.
Then on Sunday, Fauci said that, “This should have been a two-dose vaccine to begin with.”
