COVID-19 Booster Shots Available throughout NYS
From NYS Department of Health as of December 2, 2021:
A booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine will help eligible New Yorkers maximize their protection, prolong the vaccine’s durability and continue to safeguard our communities against the virus.
Booster doses of the COVID-19 vaccine are free and widely available statewide for eligible New Yorkers 18 years and older.
Eligible New Yorkers can receive any of the FDA-approved or authorized COVID-19 vaccines for their booster dose, including Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, or Janssen/Johnson & Johnson. If you have questions, talk to your health care provider or vaccine administrator.
If you are 18 years and older and received the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna initial vaccine series at least six months ago or the Janssen/Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine at least two months ago, you are eligible for your COVID-19 booster dose. Boosters can help provide additional protection, especially for those over the age of 50 and others with underlying conditions.
