Original Note:
The US FDA is moving to bivalent vaccines to simply the vaccine schedule. Unvaccinated people can now have one shot of the bivalent vaccine vs. two of the monovalent. It's also seen as more effective. Nowhere in the announcement implies the original vaccine was unsafe. https://arstechnica.com/science/2023/04/fda-authorizes-spring-covid-boosters-for-older-adults-immunocompromised/ https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/coronavirus-covid-19-update-fda-authorizes-changes-simplify-use-bivalent-mrna-covid-19-vaccines https://www.axios.com/2023/04/18/fda-second-booster-omicron-high-risk-vaccine
