If COVID vaccines got updated annually like flu shots, would you get one every year?

What does the future of COVID-19 vaccines look like?

The committee agreed this would streamline the country’s vaccination process and make it less confusing for people.

The FDA also asked the committee about several other topics during the meeting, including if COVID vaccines should be updated yearly like flu shots. The advisors said more data is needed before they can make a recommendation. More discussions are expected in the future. There was also talk of the group possibly meeting later this year to select a strain for an updated COVID vaccine, which would roll out in the fall.
