Virginia eases COVID vaccine access amid rising cases and shifting guidelines

TL;DR Summary
The FDA has limited this year's COVID booster shot eligibility to those 65 and older and high-risk groups, making it more challenging for others to get vaccinated without meeting specific criteria or self-attesting. The CDC is expected to release new recommendations soon, which may influence vaccine availability and access. People should check local pharmacies and healthcare providers for availability and be aware of potential costs and insurance coverage issues.
