BERLIN (Reuters) – Germany’s vaccine advisory committee recommends a booster mRNA COVID-19 vaccination shot for people who were inoculated with the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, it said on Thursday.

The committee also recommended booster shots for people over 70, regardless of which vaccine they had received.
