(Atlanta, GA) — The CDC director is acknowledging the definition of fully vaccinated may change. However, Dr. Rochelle Walensky said there are no changes right now.
Her agency says somebody is fully vaccinated against coronavirus when they're two weeks past their second dose if they got the Pfizer or Moderna shots. That same two week principle applies to the single-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine. Booster shots are now being rolled out for eligible Americans and Dr. Walensky admitted the CDC may need to redefine what it means to be fully vaccinated.
