Last week the CDC has released new recommendations regarding covid vaccine boosters.

For individuals who received a Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, the following groups are eligible for a booster shot at 6 months or more after their initial series:

• 65 years and older

• Age 18+ who live in long-term care settings

• Age 18+ who have underlying medical conditions

• Age 18+ who work or live in high-risk settings

For the nearly 15 million people who got the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine, booster shots are also recommended for those who are 18 and older and who were vaccinated two or more months ago.

Moderna or Pfizer vaccines can be used for boosting in all of the above categories. Regardless of what the first shot series consisted of.

Our office is currently offering Moderna vaccines for all categories. Please contact our office to arrange for a booster shot or book online.
