BOOSTER SHOTS ARE ONLY AVAILABLE FOR IMMUNOCOMPROMISED INDIVIDUALS (4)

Booster Doses

All individuals in the state of Colorado ages 18 and up who received a Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, are recommend to receive a booster shot at 6 months or more after their second dose of the vaccine.

Consultation by the State’s Chief Medical Officer with the CDC confirms that offering the vaccine to anyone in the state who is over 18 and is due for their booster is allowed given the high rate of disease transmission in Colorado.

All individuals ages 18 and up that received the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine, are recommended to receive a booster shots at 2 months or more after their first dose.

Individuals may choose which vaccine they receive as a booster dose. Some people may have a preference for the vaccine type that they originally received and others, may prefer to get a different booster. CDC’s recommendations now allow for this type of mix and match dosing for booster shots.

We highly encourage community members to reach out to their healthcare provider or local pharmacy to receive the vaccine, however we will also offer booster doses to these newly qualified individuals immediately through our scheduled vaccination clinics, as long as they are 18+ and have met the minimal elapsed time from the last dose given.
