What a disaster. Half of US adults have heard little to nothing about the updated boosters.
Today I learned that ~75+ year-old, highly-educated, health and COVID conscious parents of a friend had zero idea that the boosters were updated, or that they should get them.

Starting to get a sense of the public's understanding of, and demand for, the new bivalent Covid booster:
-1/2 of adults have heard little or nothing about the new booster
-4 in 10 fully vaccinated adults not sure if CDC recommends the booster for them

If you know anyone who's interested enough in COVID vaccines to have at least one dose, make sure they've heard about the bivalent boosters!
