You need to receive two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. Children aged 6 months to 4 years old receiving Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, will need three doses. Established patients can schedule their subsequent doses through MyChart.
It is recommended that individuals get their second dose as close to the recommended date as possible:
For children 6 months to 4 years of age receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, the first and second doses will need to be given three to eight weeks apart and the second and third doses at least eight weeks apart.
The CDC recommends the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine booster shot for teens 12–17 years of age and children 5–11 years of age to be given 5 months after the initial primary series of the Pfizer. The CDC also recommends booster vaccines for adults 18 years of age or older at least 2 months after the Johnson & Johnson's Janssen vaccine.
For adults 18 years of age or older, vaccine boosters are interchangeable and do not need to be the same brand as the primary series. Bivalent Booster Shots: Recently, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease and Control Prevention approved Pfizer’s bivalent vaccine for people ages 12 and older and Moderna’s bivalent vaccine for people ages 18 and older. The bivalent booster shots from Pfizer and Moderna target both the original COVID strain and omicron’s BA.5 subvariant. Bivalent booster vaccines will be available via St. Elizabeth Physicians' Primary Care practices by September 16. To be eligible, you must have completed a primary vaccination series — and be at least two months out from your last dose of any COVID vaccine, according to the CDC. Persons who have already received a booster dose with a monovalent product are recommended to receive a bivalent booster at least 2 months after the last booster dose. The agency’s advisors also say that if you have recently had COVID, you should consider waiting three months after testing negative before getting an updated booster.
Please contact your primary care provider or schedule through MyChart.
