Updated Booster Now Available

The updated COVID-19 vaccine boosters are recommended for everyone 5 and older who received their most recent vaccine dose at least two months ago.

The updated Pfizer booster is recommended for everyone 5 and older, and the updated Moderna booster for everyone 6 and older. You can choose which booster to get.

They are called “bivalent” booster vaccines because half of the dose is specifically targeting the Omicron subvariants that account for nearly all recent infections in NYC.

These shots further increase your immunity from your initial vaccination series and booster shot.

Before Your Appointment

You must reside in the United States to receive the vaccine.

You will need to complete the New York State COVID-19 Vaccine Form in order to get vaccinated. The State requires the provider administering the vaccine to check that you completed the form.

Before you visit us for your vaccination, also keep in mind these tips:

Bring proof of eligibility – If you are 12 years of age or older, please bring proof of your date of birth.

Reschedule if you are sick – You will be unable to receive the vaccine if you have active COVID-19 or a COVID-19 test result pending. You should also reschedule if you are not feeling well on the day of your appointment.

Bring your health insurance card – COVID-19 vaccines are free with no out of pocket costs to all New Yorkers regardless of insurance status. But if you have health insurance, we will bill your insurance.

Stay protected – Wear a face covering to your appointment and follow social distance guidelines.
