COVID-19 Booster Dose

The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) has issued UPDATED guidance on COVID-19 vaccine booster doses.

  • Certain recipients of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccine are eligible for a booster dose to prevent serious outcomes from the COVID-19 illness. Eligibility for booster doses is currently limited to individuals at the highest risk for severe COVID-19 based upon their age, certain underlying medical conditions, or occupational/institutional settings.
  • booster doses are now authorized for all recipients of the single-dose Johnson & Johnson/Janssen COVID-19 vaccine. Anyone age 18 or older who received a Johnson & Johnson vaccine can get a second booster dose at least two months following the initial dose.
  • Mix-and-match boosters: Eligible individuals may choose which vaccine they receive as a booster dose. Some people may have a preference for the vaccine type that they originally received and others, may prefer to get a different booster. This mix-and-match approach only applies to booster doses. A primary vaccination series should be completed using the same product.
