Update (1605ET): After a week of America's top health officials talking across each other, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky stated on Wednesday that the agency won't change the definition of "fully vaccinated" to include a Covid-19 booster shot - once again 'clarifying' for comments made by Dr. Anthony Fauci (see below), who suggested on Tuesday the the language was being replaced.

So while the definition of fully vaccinated will continue to mean one has received their primary course of vaccines, the CDC will start pushing the term "up to date," to encourage people to get boosted.

White House Covid-19 response coordinator Jeff Zients elaborated, saying "Someone is considered fully vaccinated if they have received their primary series of vaccines, so if you think about the different requirements that you mentioned, travel, [Occupational Safety and Health Administration], [and Centers for Medicaid & Medicare] rules and other examples, that has not changed and we do not have any plans to change that."

Inside the United States, a growing number of businesses and organizations—namely universities—have begun to mandate boosters as a condition for employment or for entering buildings.

Among those businesses, Shake Shack founder Danny Meyer, who is the CEO of the Union Square Hospitality Group, said on Dec. 22 that starting "immediately," several of his businesses "are going to be requiring that 100 percent of our staff members have a booster within 30 days of their eligibility."
