    A Food and Drug Administration advisory panel overwhelmingly voted Friday against giving Pfizer-BioNTech's Covid-19 booster shots to most people on Friday, agreeing only to distribute them to people ages 65 and up as well as those at high risk of severe illness.
    ...
    People at high-risk of exposure at work, such as health care workers and teachers, will likely also be eligible for a booster dose. Though three Covid vaccines are in use, Friday's vote focused on the Pfizer vaccine only, and would only apply to those who originally received the Pfizer shots.
    ...
    The decision could put the FDA at odds with Biden administration officials who have been pushing to begin giving out booster shots to the general population starting the week of Sept. 20, essentially starting the countdown for the FDA and the CDC to act. The booster question will now go to a group of advisers to the CDC, which will take up the issue in a two-day meeting next week.
