The UK booster programme begins in September for the over 50s, before the expected winter surge.

The US has fallen behind in vaccinating its population. Something has seemed a bit off from the beginning. Maybe Trump was effective in destroying this particular government department. Or maybe the freedumb culture is undermining things.

Canada has overtaken the US. The EU has finally caught up. It looks like the US is going to do the last 15-20% of its herd immunity the hard way. By people getting covid.

BREAKING NEWS

U.S. health officials increasingly think people who are 65 or older or immunocompromised will need Covid vaccine booster shots.
Friday, July 23, 2021 7:53 PM EST

Senior Biden administration officials now say they expect that people who are 65 or older or who have compromised immune systems will most likely need a third shot from Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna, which have been used to inoculate the vast majority of Americans thus far.

It is a sharp shift from just a few weeks ago, when the administration said it thought there was not enough evidence to back boosters yet.
