PHILADELPHIA - An influential U.S. advisory panel will discuss expanding eligibility for COVID-19 vaccine booster shots to all adults Friday, a move that could make the shots available as early as this weekend.Blaise Natale, of South Philadelphia, says he’s excited for what should be a more "normal" and (knock on wood) healthier Thanksgiving holiday."I had COVID last year," says Natale. "So, I didn’t get to do anything.
I was stuck in my apartment."Natale plans to spend this Thanksgiving with his girlfriend’s family. He says holiday events will still be smaller than usual."There’s still reason to be cautious, I guess.
