Boosters
Appointments are Required
Good news! Although we stated in our last issue that booster clinics were ending and we would no longer be providing Moderna boosters, we are pleased to announce that, due to the expanded eligibility by the CDC for boosters, we are again holding booster clinics and will provide both Pfizer and Moderna boosters.
All adults (ages 18 and older) who received either the Pfizer-BioNTech or the Moderna vaccines at least six months ago are now eligible for a third, or booster, dose. Adults who received the vaccine from Johnson & Johnson more than two months ago were already eligible for boosters.
