The US Food and Drug Administration will now require Covid-19 vaccines from Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna to use expanded warning labels with more information about the risk of a rare heart condition after vaccination.

The updated warnings highlight a rare risk of heart inflammation in teen boys and young men, CBS News reported. The warning applies to males ages 16 to 25 and is based on new data from FDA safety monitoring and a 2023 study. This includes both Pfizer's Comirnaty and Moderna's Spikevax vaccines.

The Food and Drug Administration says it has decided to continue approving COVID-19 vaccine updates for seniors and others at higher risk of severe disease, but will require vaccine makers to conduct major new clinical trials before approving them for wider use.
