Even when the pandemic ends, the coronavirus itself isn’t going anywhere. It may, however, be viewed like the flu: still potentially deadly, yes, but with mechanisms in place to prevent another massive outbreak. In a huge step towards that future, the Biden administration announced there may soon be an annual coronavirus vaccine.
This week, the Biden administration rolled out the new updated coronavirus boosters, which offer protection from the original COVID-19 strain and the Omicron variant. In a statement, Biden said, “We are launching a new vaccine — our first in almost two years — with a new approach. For most Americans, that means one COVID-19 shot, once a year, each fall.”
