Individuals ages 12 and older are encouraged to get a COVID-19 bivalent booster dose, which should be received two months after their most recent booster or primary vaccination series. If you are at least 18 years old, you can get either a Pfizer or Moderna booster, regardless of which vaccine you received for your primary series.
These updated COVID-19 boosters offer stronger protections against severe illness and death from Omicron sub-variants. The new Pfizer bivalent booster is recommended for all individuals ages 12 and older, while the Moderna bivalent booster is recommended for those ages 18 and older.
Find locations offering the boosters on the COVID-19 Vaccine Finder and Community Calendar at *covid19.nj.gov [ [link removed] ]. *The CDC expects to recommend updated COVID-19 boosters for other pediatric groups in the coming weeks.
