Covid-19 Boosters Recommended for Children Ages 12 to 15
Additional dose recommended for immunocompromised children ages 5 to 11.
The CDC recommends the Pfizer Covid-19 booster for children ages 12-15 to further protect them from Covid-19. The CDC also recommends a third dose of Pfizer for children ages 5-11 who have compromised immune systems. In addition, the wait time for boosters for anyone who received Pfizer Covid-19 vaccinations has been reduced from six months to five months.
Prevention is the best treatment to protect against Covid-19. Get vaccinated, get boosted. Covid-19 vaccines and boosters are widely available across North Carolina. Go to MySpot.nc.gov to find a vaccine location near you.
