CDC director being cautious over who should get booster shots

(Atlanta, GA) -- A new report says there's growing frustration among Biden Administration health officials when it comes to who should be eligible for a coronavirus booster shot.  

The Washington Post is reporting CDC Director Rochelle Walensky has warned about making more people eligible so quickly. Only certain individuals are currently able to get a third dose of either Moderna, Pfizer, or Johnson and Johnson. Those include people 65 and older and folks who may be exposed to the virus at work.  

News about tension among health officials comes as everyone 18 and older in Colorado is now eligible for a booster shot. Governor Jared Polis signed an executive order Thursday to open up eligibility to all adults. He did so by declaring Colorado as high risk for being exposed to or transmitting the virus.
