ECDC and EMA update recommendations on additional booster doses of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines
11 July 2022 - The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control and the EMA are recommending that second booster doses of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines be considered for people between 60 and 79 years old and people with medical conditions putting them at high risk of severe disease.
In April 2022, both agencies recommended that people over 80 years of age be considered for a second booster. However, the agencies noted at the time that it might be necessary to consider second boosters in people between 60 and 79 years old and vulnerable persons of any age if there was a resurgence of infections.
