The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said an advisory committee will discuss Moderna Inc. and Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine booster doses on Oct. 14 and Oct. 15.

The Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee will also discuss the use of "mix and match" boosters in which the booster dose is a different vaccine than the one used for primary vaccination.

On Sept. 22, the FDA approved a booster developed by Pfizer Inc. and BioNTech SE for people 65 and older and certain other adults at high risk of severe illness.
