May 2, 2022 -- The FDA’s independent panel of advisors will meet in June to discuss the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines for children under age 5, as well as the Novavax vaccine for adults, according toOn June 7, the FDA’s vaccine committee will review the Novavax shot, which could become the first new COVID-19 vaccine to hit the U.S. market in more than a year. The shot is already authorized in more than three dozen countries, including across Europe.
In addition, the FDA committee will meet on June 28 to discuss whether the coronavirus strain composition in current vaccines should be modified, and if so, which strains should be used for vaccines produced for fall 2022. The meeting is a follow-up discussion from April 6 when the group discussed general ideas for emerging variants, future COVID-19 vaccines, and booster doses.
The independent panel — officially called the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee — holds public meetings to discuss the data around vaccines. The panel then makes recommendations on vaccine authorizations and approvals, which the FDA may decide to follow.
