An expert weighs in.

John,
Is it time to start thinking about booster shots?
The COVID vaccine became publicly available in the U.S. a little more than
six months ago. Depending on how long immunity lasts*, it might be necessary to
get additional shots to stay protected.
We wanted to know what the experts say, so we asked Dr. Anna Durbin, a
professor of international health at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of
Public Health.
She tells us more about COVID vaccine booster shots -- in under two minutes --
in our latest Road to Recovery video:

For a COVID booster, how long after your first vaccine would you need to get
one? Do you have to get the same type of vaccine you got the first time around?
Will booster shots help protect against variants?
Dr. Durbin covers these questions in this installment of Road to Recovery.
Take a moment to watch:
