(CNN) Pfizer is expected to seek US Food and Drug Administration emergency use authorization for a coronavirus vaccine booster shot for people 18 and older, a Biden administration official said Monday. The expected EUA request was first reported by the Washington Post. The FDA has already authorized Covid-19 vaccine boosters for the majority of adults once they're far enough past their initial doses. Anyone who got the Johnson & Johnson shot two months ago or longer is eligible two months after getting their first shot. The J&J vaccine is only authorized for people age 18 and older.
