Fauci on the Definition of Fully Vaccinated: ‘From a Personal Standpoint, Optimal Protection Is with a Booster’

EXCERPT:

FAUCI: "Well, you know, fully vaccinated as a technical term, Francis, it -- it relates to the requirement of showing that you’re vaccinated to be able to go into a -- a -- a -- a location, be at a college, or university, or a workplace to say I am now officially within this category, so I can proceed. I don’t see that changing in the immediate future, but one thing is clear, that from a personal standpoint, optimal protection is with a booster. When that gets changed to be the 'official' definition of fully vaccinated I think that certainly is on the table and it is going to be seriously considered, but for the immediate future, I think it’s going to stay with the two dose of an mRNA and a single dose of J&J to be the official definition for regulatory purposes and for purposes of admission or not into certain venues. It’s going to stay that way for a while."
