With Covid-19 reportedly mutating with new variants coming out even after the vaccine's release, the FDA has called for an update to the current shots. FDA advisers voted that the new vaccine should target the single latest variant.

This comes as the current shots still include the original strain of the virus. During that time, FDA vaccine chief DR. Peter Marks gave a statement regarding the thought behind the decision.

Marks: “We’re concerned that we may have another wave of COVID-19 during a time when the virus has further evolved, immunity of the population has waned further, and we move indoors for wintertime,”

This comes as Americans were told by the FDA to expect an upcoming updated Covid-19 vaccine, just like the regular fall flu shots. However, it was reported that only 17% of Americans got a combo booster for the original strait plus the most common omicron variants of 2022.

In March, Biden reportedly signed a bill to declassify Covid-19 origins intelligence. Implementing the legislation would then declassify more information, which would then be accessible to the public.

In October, it was reported that scientists made a new Covid-19 variant that had an 80% kill rate in mice. This was according to a research paper that detailed how the study hopes to better understand the virus' protein spike effects.
