WHO Urges Delay in Booster Shots For COVID

The FDA’s announcement comes shortly after the World Health Organization implored wealthy countries to avoid giving out third doses until countries with fewer vaccines can catch up. On August 4, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, PhD, asked for a moratorium on booster shots until at least the end of September, stating that hundreds of millions of people around the world still don’t have access to first doses.
