Barry Miller+FollowWho Can Still Get COVID Shots?Big change alert: The FDA just announced that starting in 2025, only people 65+ or those with certain health conditions will have easy access to COVID vaccines. If you’re younger and healthy, getting your annual shot is about to get way harder. With anti-vax voices gaining power, the days of free-for-all COVID boosters are over. Docs are worried this could mean more unnecessary deaths. What do you think about the new rules? #COVID19 #FDA #Vaccines #HealthNews #PublicHealth #Health12Share
Melanie James+FollowFDA Narrows COVID Vax—Who’s Still Eligible?Big shift: The FDA just announced that only adults 65+ and people with certain health risks (think asthma, cancer, diabetes, etc.) will be able to get the new COVID-19 vaccine this fall. Healthy younger adults and kids? Not on the list unless new trials prove it’s worth it. This move is sparking debate—some say it’s about safety, others worry it’ll make vaccines harder to get and fuel more hesitancy.

Spencer Brewer+FollowModerna’s Combo Vax Hits a RoadblockModerna just yanked its FDA application for their much-hyped combo flu/COVID shot, even after saying it worked better than current vaccines. Turns out, the FDA wants more data, so Moderna’s pushing approval back to 2026 and deprioritizing the shot for now. Their stock dropped 4.5% on the news. They’ll try again later this year when more trial results come in. Meanwhile, the FDA’s getting stricter on vaccine approvals, and Pfizer’s racing ahead with its own combo vax.

nheath+FollowFDA’s COVID Vax Move Sparks OutrageThe FDA just dropped a bomb: COVID vaccines might only be available for people over 65 or those at high risk. That means healthy adults under 65 could be out of luck until more studies are done. CT health experts are calling this 'borderline unethical'—especially since the vax has been studied like crazy. People are worried about losing their shot at protection, and honestly, the irony isn’t lost on anyone. What do you think: smart move or total misstep? #COVID19 #VaccineNews #FDA #HealthDebate #Connecticut #Health5682Share
Spencer Brewer+FollowFDA’s Big COVID Vaccine Shake-UpMajor update: The FDA wants to limit COVID shots to people 65+ and those at high risk, instead of recommending them for everyone. They’re also asking for more research to see if younger, healthy folks really need more doses. Experts are torn—some say it makes sense, others worry it could mean more COVID cases and less access. If you’re under 65 and healthy, your next booster might not be a sure thing! #COVID19 #FDA #VaccineUpdate #PublicHealth #HealthNews #Health125Share
Kevin Rodriguez+FollowCOVID Shots Now for Just a Select Few?Big change: The FDA just announced that updated COVID vaccines will only be approved for people 65+, pregnant women, and those with certain health conditions (think asthma, diabetes, cancer, obesity). If you’re under 65 and healthy, you might not get access—or insurance coverage—anymore. This shift comes as RFK Jr.’s vaccine-skeptic influence grows, even though he wasn’t directly involved. Some experts say this is way too restrictive and could leave a lot of people out. What do you think: smart move or too risky? #COVID19 #VaccineUpdate #FDA #HealthNews #RFKJr #Health10Share
Stephanie Snow+FollowFDA Shakes Up COVID Booster RulesBig change alert: The FDA just announced they’ll require actual clinical trials (not just immune response data) before approving new COVID booster shots for healthy people under 65. If you’re high-risk or over 65, you’ll still get access based on immune response. But for the rest of us? The bar’s higher—think gold-standard, randomized trials. Vaccine stocks like Moderna and Novavax jumped on the news. Is this the start of a new era for vaccine approvals? #COVID19 #FDA #VaccineUpdate #HealthNews #Moderna #Health100Share
Allison Bauer+FollowCOVID Shots: Who Gets Them Now?Big update on COVID vaccines: The FDA is tightening the rules, so this fall, only seniors and people with health risks (think diabetes, pregnancy, even depression) will get easy access to updated shots. If you’re healthy and under 65, you’ll need to wait for more clinical trials before you can get the new boosters. Basically, no more one-size-fits-all—just targeted protection for those who need it most. Thoughts on this new approach? #COVID19 #VaccineUpdate #FDA #HealthNews #PublicHealth #Health00Share
Spencer Brewer+FollowFDA Just Changed COVID Vaccine RulesBig update: The FDA is tightening COVID vaccine rules—annual boosters might only be for older adults and people with health risks now. If you’re young and healthy, you might not need another shot unless new studies prove it’s worth it. This could mean fewer people are eligible, and there’s worry insurance might not cover vaccines for everyone anymore. The FDA says it’s about building trust and following what other countries do.

Stacy Fisher+FollowCOVID’s Scariest Symptom Yet?This is wild—an 8-year-old girl in China died just an hour after frothing at the mouth, all because of a rare COVID-19 brain complication. Doctors say COVID usually hits the lungs, but in super rare cases, it can attack the brain and cause seizures, even in kids. The craziest part? She had mild symptoms at first, then things went downhill fast. Experts are now urging parents and doctors to watch for weird neurological signs in kids with COVID. Absolutely heartbreaking. #COVID19 #HealthNews #Parenting #Neurology #ViralNews #Health5822Share
