BERLIN, Nov 18 — Germany’s vaccine advisory committee recommended Covid-19 vaccine booster shots for all people aged over 18 today as the number of coronavirus infections hits a new record in Europe’s largest economy.

The committee, known as STIKO, said it also recommends booster shots to be administered with an mRNA vaccine and that a booster should be given six months after the last vaccine dose.
