Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla again declared Monday that the “most likely scenario” in the near future is “annual revaccination” for COVID.
Bourla made the comments in an CNBC interview, noting “I made a projection months ago that the most likely scenario is that we would need after the third dose, annual revaccination against Covid.”
“I think we’re going to have an annual revaccination and that should be able to keep us really safe,” Bourla added.

“Today, CDC is strengthening its recommendation on booster doses for individuals who are 18 years and older,” CDC Director Rochelle Walensky said in a statement.
