Moderna’s Covid-19 vaccine receives full FDA approval

The vaccine, named Spikevax, is now approved for use in people ages 18 and older. It is not approved or authorized for use in younger individuals. There’s no difference between the approved vaccine and the vaccine previously available through emergency use authorization.

Moderna’s is the second Covid-19 vaccine to receive full approval from the FDA. Pfizer’s Covid-19 vaccine, Comirnaty, was approved for use in people age 16 and older in August. The Pfizer vaccine is also authorized for use in individuals ages 5 to 15.
