Washington. Estados Unidos extendió este viernes la autorización de los refuerzos de la vacuna contra la covid-19 a todas las personas mayores de 18 años, seis meses después de completar su pauta primaria, anunciaron autoridades sanitarias.

La Administración de Alimentos y Medicamentos (FDA, por sus siglas en inglés) dijo que la autorización de uso de emergencia concedida a los laboratorios Pfizer y Moderna ayudó a “proporcionar una protección continua contra la covid-19, incluso contra las consecuencias graves que pueden ocurrir, como la hospitalización o la muerte”.
