On October 4, EU's drug watchdog approved booster shots of the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine for all people aged 18 and over.

EMA gave a nod to people with "severely weakened immune systems" to get extra doses of Moderna and Pfizer at least 28 days after their second dose. Watch the video to know more.
