EU watchdog backs Sanofi Covid booster jab

The EU's medicines watchdog on Thursday backed a Covid booster vaccine by French drug maker Sanofi after saying it had given positive results against the Omicron variant in clinical trials.

Sanofi's VidPrevtyn Beta jab could be used as a booster in adults previously given mRNA jabs like the Pfizer and Moderna, or viral vector vaccines made by AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) said in a statement.
