ATLANTA — The new bivalent COVID-19 booster is now available across Georgia. The Department of Public Health says over 65,000 shots of the new vaccine have already been given out. The new 'bivalent' boosters replace the older 'monovalent' booster that targeted only the original strain of the coronavirus that arrived in the U.S. in 2020. 'This is the first advancement in the vaccines since we started using them in December of 2020,' Emory University School of Public Health researcher, Jodie Guest, told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
