The Johnson & Johnson vaccine was given as a single dose.  This is a broader recommendation than those for other types of COVID vaccines. The recommendation will go to the FDA and then to an advisory committee to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, scheduled to meet Wednesday and Thursday.  Third doses of the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines, which were originally given as two doses, have already been authorized for people 65 and older.  Topics: [Vaccine](https://blog.argentum.org/ipc/topic/vaccine) ### Written by [Argentum](https://blog.argentum.org/ipc/author/argentum) ### Subscribe to Instant Email Updates ### See More COVID-19 Announcements Read more announcements related to COVID-19 on our Coronavirus Blog and access more information on: - [Funding](https://blog.argentum.org/covid-19/topic/funding) - [Vaccine](https://blog.argentum.org/covid-19/topic/vaccine) - [Visitation](https://blog.argentum.org/covid-19/topic/visitation) - [Testing](https://blog.argentum.org/covid-19/topic/testing) [![SEE BLOG](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/2715174/ee246d8a-9a1d-4cd5-8c67-76586acc4a15.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/2715174/ee246d8a-9a1d-4cd5-8c67-76586acc4a15) ### Stay Updated on COVID-19 Find all of our latest updates on developments related to COVID-19 on our Coronavirus Toolkit.
