Geisinger says folks can start making appointments to get the Pfizer booster shot.

Those eligible for a booster include people who have received their two doses of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, and:

•    Are age 65 and older

•    Are a long-term care resident

•    Are age 18 to 64 with an underlying medical condition that puts them at higher risk for serious illness from COVID-19

•    Are age 18 to 64 and have a job that puts them at increased risk of being exposed to COVID-19.

And, you can only get the booster if your second Pfizer dose was at least 6 months ago.

People who received the Moderna or Johnson & Johnson covid vaccines are not eligible for the Pfizer booster.

You can make an appointment for a booster COVID-19 vaccine at Geisinger through MyGeisinger or by calling 570-284-3657.
