Who Is Eligible?
According to the CDC and FDA, you are eligible if you have received Pfizer or Moderna and are 18+ or 65+. You are also suitable if you are in a high-risk setting, have an autoimmune disease, or live in a long-term care setting. You must have received your second dose at least six months prior.
You can get a booster shot two months later if you got the first Johnson & Johnson vaccine and are 18+.
