Moderna CEO Stephane Bancel says his company’s updated Covid booster vaccine is showing a stronger antibody response to Omicron, and may be available by late summer.
The updated booster contains the original vaccine and a candidate that specifically targets the Omicron variant. Side effects are apparently similar to the original.
The FDA’s vaccine advisers will decide on June 28 whether vaccine compositions should be modified.
It would be fairly pointless if an update wasn’t more effective, in fairness.
