Heading into the third fall of the pandemic, Americans will have access to booster shots reformulated to fight omicron sub-variants.

White House officials said the hope is that going forward the covid vaccine will be updated on an annual basis and people will get an annual COVID shot like the flu.

Today on All Sides with Ann Fisher, we take a look at the updated covid booster shot.

Guests:

  • Dr. Joseph Gastaldo, infectious disease specialist, OhioHealth
  • Dr. Ardeshir Hashmi, Section Chair of Center for Geriatric Medicine, Cleveland Clinic
  • Elana Bernstein, Assistant Professor in School Psychology, University of Dayton
