Vaccine advisers to the US Food and Drug Administration meet Thursday and Friday of this week to tackle the next round of questions about booster vaccines for Covid-19 -- and they might be seeing the first trickle of data on mix-and-match boosters.
It's been one of the biggest ongoing questions about vaccines since three different products hit the US -- is it safe, and even desirable, to mix different vaccine types?That's the last question members of the FDA's Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee or VRBPAC will be considering. On Thursday, they'll focus on Moderna's application to add a booster dose to its two-dose vaccine schedule.
These two different delivery methods stimulate the immune system in slightly different ways, Branche said."I think the data will show that boosting is certainly likely to be very effective in conferring additional and longer protection," she said.
