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
nheath+FollowNovavax’s COVID Vax: Not for Everyone?Novavax just got full FDA approval, but there’s a catch: it’s only for people 65+ or those 12-64 with health risks. Unlike Pfizer and Moderna’s mRNA shots, Novavax is protein-based (fewer side effects, anyone?). But with the FDA shaking up vaccine rules, next fall’s booster options might look way different. If you’re tired of shots, nasal vaccines could be on the horizon! #Novavax #COVID19 #VaccineUpdate #FDA #HealthNews #Health00Share
Adam Cox+FollowFDA’s New COVID Shot Rules—What’s Up?The FDA just gave Novavax’s new COVID shot the green light, but only for seniors and high-risk folks—not everyone. Unlike Pfizer and Moderna, which are approved for anyone 12+, Novavax’s shot is limited to those 65+ or people 12-64 with health risks. Plus, the FDA wants more safety data, especially for heart issues. And heads up: the whole vaccine approval process might be changing soon, with talks of new rules and even dropping COVID shots from the kids’ vaccine list. Stay tuned! #COVID19 #Novavax #FDA #VaccineUpdate #HealthNews #Health47Share
reyesbrian+FollowNovavax Finally Gets the Green LightNovavax just scored long-awaited FDA approval for its COVID-19 vaccine, and their stock shot up 15%! The catch? It’s only for folks 65+ or anyone 12+ with health risks. This is a big deal for people who wanted a non-mRNA option (think: not Pfizer or Moderna). Novavax is teaming up with Sanofi to roll it out this fall, but they’ll need more approvals for future updates. Big pharma drama, anyone? #Novavax #COVID19 #VaccineNews #FDA #HealthUpdates #Health00Share
Kevin Rodriguez+FollowFDA’s Taking a Hard Look at Food AdditivesThe FDA is finally re-checking those food chemicals we’ve all side-eyed—like the stuff in bread, cereal, and even pepperoni. They’re starting with ADA, BHT, and BHA (yep, the ones linked to cancer in rats) and speeding up reviews of others like phthalates and titanium dioxide. This could mean new labels or even bans if things get sketchy. With the FDA cracking down, expect big changes in what’s on your plate soon! #FoodSafety #FDA #FoodAdditives #HealthNews #IngredientWatch #Health101323Share
William Vasquez+FollowFDA’s Food Chemical Crackdown: Bakers Beware!The FDA just dropped a bombshell: they're finally rolling out a proactive review of food chemicals already on the market—no more waiting for complaints or new studies. Big names like BHT, BHA, ADA, phthalates, propylparaben, and titanium dioxide are all on the hot seat. Bakers might feel this the most since a bunch of these are in everyday breads, pastries, and snacks. The goal? More transparency and safer food. Public comments are coming soon, so stay tuned! #FoodSafety #FDA #BakingNews #FoodChemicals #Transparency #Health70Share
nheath+FollowNew Covid Shot, But Only for SomeThe FDA just greenlit a new Covid vaccine from Novavax, but here’s the catch: it’s only for people 65+ or those 12-65 with health risks. Unlike the usual mRNA shots, this one’s protein-based—so if you’ve been holding out for something different, this might be your moment (if you qualify). People are already debating the restrictions and whether it should be more widely available. Would you try this new option if you could? #CovidVaccine #Novavax #FDA #HealthNews #VaccineUpdate #Health322Share
Melanie James+FollowWhy Did the FDA Stop Testing Milk?!The FDA just hit pause on milk testing for bird flu—right when experts say we need it most. Cows across the US are getting sick, and some farm workers are catching it too. Experts are freaking out, warning that ditching these tests could make things way worse. If you drink milk or eat cheese, this is one to watch. Feels like we’re flying blind here! #BirdFlu #MilkTesting #PublicHealth #FDA #FoodSafety #Health54Share
