Doctors have continued to bring up the idea of a COVID-19 booster shot throughout the pandemic, but now it's clear. You'll definitely need one.
"It's not uncommon to have boosters. There are very few, in fact, vaccines that are single-shot vaccines," Dr. Michael Teng with USF Public Health said.
That's why the virologist says we'll need one for COVID-19. The data from Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson's clinical trials show the vaccines are effective enough.
"If we do get one more shot, it will be one more booster shot. Maybe that will be enough to put people's immune system over the edge," Teng said.
