ongoing boosters. i will expect for everyone to be thinking that some time in the first to second quarter of next year there s going to be discussions. the next issue is exactly as you said, as your previous piece stated, we re not having enough vaccinations going in arms across the world. as that happens, these regions are going to start having the opportunity to develop more variants and the alphabet is going to be pushed. dr. scott miscovich, appreciate you joining us and sharing your expertise. thank you for being on cnn. thank you. just over a month to go until the tokyo olympics. organizers are facing more hurdles. on saturday a coach with uganda s team became one of the first to test positive for covid upon arrival in japan. ugandan officials say the coach isn t showing symptoms. it comes as organizers are set to decide whether to allow spectators during the games. something experts have advised
