LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) — The Tippecanoe County Health Department announced this week that the firm no longer has bivalent booster doses of moderna, after receiving three hundred doses of Pfizer and three hundred doses of Moderna boosters from the Indiana State Department of Health just a week earlier.
“Currently, we no longer have a bivalent reinforcement from Moderna,” the fitness arm said in a statement, “and lately we are unable to re-order. “
Pfizer’s recall is still available in Tippecanoe County, he said, and can be given to those over the age of 12. The booster may be given at least two months after the last dose or booster received; those specific reminders cannot be used for the first or dose of the moment.
A federal advisory committee voted 13-1 last month in favor of more pushers, USA Today reported Sept. 1. 1. The new reinforcements from Pfizer and Moderna point to both the original virus and the most recent variants: BA. 4 and BA. 5, lately the dominant variants in the world.
While Pfizer injections are for anyone over the age of 12, Moderna’s booster is for adults.
