New
CDC guidelines out this morning say people with certain health conditions that make them immunocompromised may need
another booster COVID-19 shot.
Those people can get that fourth shot at least six
months after getting their third shot.
As
News 12 has reported, the CDC authorized a third dose for immunocompromised
people 18 and older in August.
A
study from Johns Hopkins University this summer showed vaccinated
immunocompromised people were 485 times more likely to end up in the hospital
or die from COVID-19. That is compared to most vaccinated people.
