The UK panel recommends Covid-19 Booster Shots for more than 50s

LONDON: Expert advisor panels recommend Tuesday that the British government offers a third dose of Covid-19 vaccine for everyone above the age of 50 to protect against the protection of reduced this winter.
The combined committee of recommendations for vaccination and immunization came as Prime Minister Boris Johnson prepared to announce the new government plan to fight the pandemic.
The World Health Organization has asked rich countries to postpone Booster’s shots until each country has vaccinated at least 40% of their population.
JCVI said Booster’s shot was needed to ensure vulnerable people were protected against Covid-19, because research has shown that the immunity given by the vaccine weakened from time to time.
The panel recommends that people over 50 get a six-month booster shot after they receive their second vaccine.
The move occurs even though there is an appeal from whom, which has urged rich countries with a large supply of Coronavirus vaccine to refrain from offering booster shots until the end of the year and making doses available for poor countries.
WHO Director General of Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus appealed last week to hold back, by saying he could not stay silent when the company and countries that control the supply of global vaccines thinking poor people in the world must be satisfied with the rest of the food.
Israel has given the third dose to various people who have received a full two-dose regimen in the previous month.
US health officials continue to assess the booster science and utility.
Who officials insist on scientific justification for boosters remain unclear.
Oxford University professor Sarah Gilbert told the telegraph newspaper last week that the immunity of the vaccine survived well even against the Delta variant.
While parents and those who compromised immunity might need a booster, a two-dose regimen of standard dose provides eternal protection for most people, he said.
