BRUSSELS - EU-approved adapted vaccines also protect against the Eris variant. This was stated by the director of EMA Emer Cooke responding to a question from ANSA. "Eris is one of the variants we followed, and the new vaccines also protect against Eris," as well as "against the newer variants in circulation." "The pandemic is over - added Cooke - but the virus is still a threat to those at risk, so people over 65, those with precarious health conditions and pregnant women must get vaccinated".
