We are still waiting to hear details of the new COVID-19 booster roll out in Canada.

But Americans are now finding out they will get access to the new vaccine within weeks.

U.S. health experts told reporters this week to expect the updated COVID booster to be ready by the middle of September.

Manufacturers have updated the formula to account for new strains of the virus.

They say the shots will be needed to shore up immunity that’s waned over time.

The big question is whether people will actually line up to get the shot.

Only 56-million Americans, about 17-percent of the population, have received an updated booster so far.
