The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention鈥檚 (CDC) current eligibility requirements for a COVID-19 booster are listed below:

People aged 18鈥64 years at increased risk for COVID-19 exposure and transmission because of occupational or institutional setting may get a booster shot based on their individual benefits and risks. 鈥
Adults aged 18鈥64 years who work or reside in certain settings (e.g., health care, schools, correctional facilities, and homeless shelters) may be at increased risk of being exposed to COVID-19, which could be spreading where they work or reside.
Per CDC and FDA guidelines, eligibility for J&J/Janssen is over 18 years old and 2 months from prior vaccination.
Per current CDC and FDA guidelines, eligibility for the Pfizer and Moderna booster includes those who are 65 and older, live/work in long-term care facilities, have underlying medical conditions, or are at higher risk of exposure to the virus because of their jobs, such as health care workers and teachers.

艾可直播 College has contracted with VaxinateRx and Healthcare Family Pharmacy for our COVID-19 booster clinic, which will take place in the Connell Recreation Center, MAC Court. Their staff will confirm your eligibility at the site. The clinic will be open on the dates and times below:
