The FDA could approve vaccine booster shots for some of the most vulnerable Americans within weeks. 

According to multiple reports, in the next week or so, the FDA is planning to review CDC data on additional doses for the immunocompromised.

That includes people who have gotten organ transplants, are being treated for cancer, or have HIV, just to name a few.
