The WHO stops recommending the Booster Anticovid Vaccine to the majority of the population.
To talk about it, we were accompanied by Dr. Amos García Rojas, Epidemiologist and vaccinologist. President of the Spanish Vaccinology Association
Vaccine experts from the World Health Organization (WHO) recommended that Covid booster vaccines are no longer administered to populations other than high-risk groups, given the high level of immunization achieved by populations in many countries.
The need for a booster dose, between six and 12 months after the previous one, remains only in groups that include the elderly, immunosuppressed and health workers, as explained today at a press conference by two representatives of the WHO expert group after their meetings from March 20 to 23.
On the other hand, the experts showed concern about the reduction that the Pandemic has produced in vaccination programs against Measles, with some 25 million children affected by it, which has caused the lowest coverage rate since 2008.
