U.S. secures 171 million omicron Covid shots ahead of fall vaccination campaign
- The U.S. has agreed to purchase 66 million doses of Moderna’s new vaccine formula that targets omicron in a $1.74 billion deal.
- The Moderna order comes on top of a U.S. agreement to purchase 105 million doses of Pfizer’s updated shots that target omicron for $3.2 billion.
- Many public health officials and scientists believe that updating the vaccines to target omicron BA.4 and BA.5 will provide more durable protection against infection this fall.
Thank a GQPer who can get you killed:
Congress has failed to pass additional funding to fight Covid. As a consequence, the White House shifted $10 billion from other parts of the pandemic response to secure the new vaccines for the fall. This means that Covid testing, for example, might be weak heading into a fall wave.
The 171 million vaccine doses secured by the U.S. is also not enough to cover everyone in the country. Biden administration health officials have warned that the U.S. might have to ration the shots to people at the highest risk of severe disease in the fall.
The U.S. does have the option to purchase another 600 million doses total from Pfizer and Moderna but this will require additional funding from Congress, according HHS.
