The CDC has greenlit the rollout of an updated COVID-19 vaccine, booster, more boosters.

0:09.3

This is after the Food and Drug Administration authorized it. These shots are going to replace

0:14.4

the previous boosters. They're for people who are 12 and up. You want to be up to date on your

0:21.6

booster? Can't be updated on your booster if you've never got the shot to begin with casing.

By the way, I don't know if you saw this earlier last week, China approved an inhaled COVID vaccine

0:33.6

for your booster. Who would trust an inhalable vaccine from China right now?

0:42.1

Get in line for that one. I just, well, I cannot imagine people who have trusted much of this
