After a six-week delay, the US Food and Drug Administration has approved Novavax’s Covid-19 vaccine, according to a letter from the agency, but only for people 65 and older and those 12 and up who have at least one underlying condition that puts them at higher risk of severe illness.

Novavax had expected full approval for broader use by April 1, after the FDA reviewed data from a 30,000-person clinical trial showing the vaccine was safe and effective. But instead of a broad approval, the FDA asked the company to conduct more research.

President Donald Trump’s administration is slated to lay out its approach to Covid vaccination at an event Tuesday that could spell major changes in what is required to get regulatory approval for immunizations.
