Boosting Isn't Easy Decision for Parents, Gellad Tells WaPo

FDA has authorized Pfizer boosters for kids 5-11. The decision to boost isn't straightforward for parents, CP3 Director Dr. Walid Gellad told The Washington Post, especially for kids who have been infected with the omicron variant. "We’re getting very late into the covid epidemic to be vaccinating with a vaccine based on the ancestral virus, the original virus,” Gellad said. “The other issue is that many kids have been infected — and two doses plus infection provides pretty good protection.”
