The one thing certain about the COVID vaccine right now is that everything about it is changing.
The Food and Drug Administration recently approved the next round of COVID-19 vaccines for the fall season, but it significantly changed who can get it.
The move comes amidst a broader effort by the Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to change policy and guidance around many vaccines.

UCSF infectious disease doctor Dr. Peter Chin-Hong answered your questions.
