The Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s recommendations now allow for "mix and match" dosing for booster shots of the COVID-19 vaccine. This means that eligible individuals may choose which vaccine they receive as a booster dose. While some individuals may prefer the vaccine type that they originally received, others may choose to get a different booster.
For the latest information about vaccine booster eligibility, visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
For individuals who have not been vaccinated, appointments for the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine are available to those over age 12, while the Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines are available to those over age 18.
