BERLIN: Switzerland said on Tuesday it was recommending COVID-19 booster shots for people over 65 but not for the general population.
The vaccinations would start from mid-November and should be done at least six months after the patients received their second dose, Switzerland's health ministry and vaccination commission (EKIF) said in a statement.
