🇺🇸🇷🇺The US does not believe talks between Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Secretary of State Antony Blinken "would be constructive in the current environment"

💉Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration modified the emergency use authorization (EUA) for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, authorizing the use of a single booster dose to manage the vaccine for children aged 5 to 11, making everyone in the country over the age of 5 eligible for a third shot.

"What is the goal of this vaccine? Are we trying to protect against all symptomatic infections for a limited period of time? Or are we trying to protect against serious illness, in which case all the evidence is that we are preventing serious illness" with the two-dose vaccine regimen, Dr. Paul Offit, a pediatric infectious disease expert at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, said.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) still needs to sign off on the shots before they can be administered. Children below the age of five are not yet eligible for a COVID-19 vaccine in the United States.
