Case updates January 7, 2022 - a grim milestone as deaths in state top 10,000

Everyone 12 and older should get a booster dose at least:

• Five months after completing the Pfizer primary vaccination series,
• Six months after completing the Moderna primary vaccination series, or
• Two months after receiving the single-dose Johnson and Johnson vaccine.
• Boosters can be mixed and matched, which means adults can get any mRNA COVID-19 vaccine available. Pfizer is currently the only COVID-19 vaccine authorized for people ages 17 and younger.
