Dr. Scott Gottlieb, former commissioner of the Food
and Drug Administration, says
it is safe for partially vaccinated kids to be around family this year
during the holidays.
"Children who are
partially vaccinated have some immunity and they're going to be more protective
in that environment,” says Gottlieb. “But I think using testing smartly in
those settings can help detect that in that setting."
Gottlieb also says he thinks
we are close to the end of the pandemic where the virus affects everyone.
Instead, we're getting closer to a stage where the virus affects certain age
groups more often.
