New COVID-19 booster guidelines
|
|
|
|
In March, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) updated its COVID-19 vaccination guidance. These people now have the option to receive a second booster of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine:
- Ages 50+ who received an initial COVID-19 booster* at least 4 months ago
- Ages 12+ who are moderately or severely immunocompromised and received an initial booster at least 4 months ago
- Ages 18+ who received both a primary dose of J&J/Janssen and a booster at least 4 months ago
People age 5+ who are not yet vaccinated against COVID-19 are encouraged to get vaccinated as soon as possible and remain up to date on their immunization, including receiving an initial booster dose when eligible.
* Regardless of which vaccine was used
