Booster Shots
The updated COVID-19 bivalent booster shots provide broader protection against newer
strains of COVID-19 and help to restore protection that may have diminished since
previous COVID-19 vaccinations.
The Moderna and Pfizer bivalent COVID-19 vaccines are authorized, to eligible individuals,
as a single booster dose administered at least 2 months after completion of any primary
series or monovalent booster.
Eligible individuals are recommended to receive 1 age-appropriate bivalent mRNA booster
dose, regardless of which primary series they received. (button from cdc site) link:
