The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that individuals 18 years of age or older should get a booster shot of the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccines. The CDC also recommends that minors 12-17 years old receive a booster of the Pfizer vaccine. A booster shot can be provided at least five months after completing the primary Pfizer vaccination series or six months after completing the primary Moderna vaccination series. Individuals may choose which COVID-19 vaccine to receive as a booster shot. A booster shot of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine is also recommended for those who are 18 and older and who were vaccinated two or more months ago. The FDA also approved the issuance of a third dose of the Moderna vaccine only for certain immunocompromised individuals.

People eligible to receive the booster shot can visit any County-supported vaccination sites being operated by NOMI Health as well as CVS Pharmacy or Walgreens Pharmacy. Bring a valid photo ID and proof of receiving the initial doses of the vaccine.
