Covid Booster Dose Information

MODERNA: If an individual received the Moderna vaccine for the primary series (their first and second Covid shots), booster doses can be given to adults who are at high risk for severe disease and complications from Covid or high risk for exposure to Covid.  Eligibility includes those who meet any of the following criteria:

  • 65 years and older.
  • Age 18 and older who live in long-term care settings.
  • Age 18 and older who have underlying medical conditions.
  • Age 18 and older who work or live in high-risk settings.

Booster dose timing:  At least six months following completion of the primary Moderna series (two doses spaced at least 28days apart).

Additional dose for people who are immunocompromised:  A third dose can be added to the primary vaccine series at least 28 days following the second dose for individuals at least 18 years of age who have had a solid organ transplant or a condition that results in moderate to severe immune-compromise.  At this time, the maximum number of doses of an mRNA vaccine that can be given to any individual is three.  Therefore, if someone received an additional dose because they are immunocompromised, they should not receive a fourth booster dose.

Mix-and-match booster:  Someone who received the primary series of the Moderna vaccine and is eligible to receive a booster dose may get a booster dose of any Covid vaccine approved or authorized for use in the United States. 

JOHNSON & JOHNSON: Booster doses are authorized for all recipients of the single-dose Johnson & Johnson/Janssen Covid vaccine.  Anyone age 18 or older who received a Johnson & Johnson vaccine can get a booster dose at least two months following the initial dose.

Mix-and-match booster:  Someone who received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine may get a booster dose of any Covid vaccine approved or authorized for use in the United States.

PFIZER: If an individual received the Pfizer/Comirnaty vaccine for the primary series, booster doses can be given to adults who are at high risk for severe disease and complications from Covid or high risk for exposure to Covid.  Eligibility includes those who meet any of the following criteria:

  • 65 years and older.
  • Age 18 and older who live in long-term care settings.
  • Age 18 and older who have underlying medical conditions.
  • Age 18 and older who work or live in high-risk settings.

Booster dose timing: At least six months following completion of the standard primary Pfizer series (two doses spaced at least 21 days apart).

Additional dose for people who are immunocompromised: A third dose can be added to the primary vaccine series at least28 days following the second dose for individuals at least 12 years of age who have had a solid organ transplant or a condition that results in moderate to severe immune-compromise.  At this time, the maximum number of doses of an mRNA vaccine that can be given to any individual is three.  Therefore, if someone received an additional dose because they are immunocompromised, they should not receive a fourth booster dose.

Mix-and-match booster:  Someone who received the primary series of the Pfizer/Comirnaty vaccine and is eligible to receive a booster dose may get a booster dose of any Covid vaccine approved or authorized for use in the United States.

PROOF OF ELIGIBILITY: Eligible booster recipients will be asked to attest they meet one of the eligibility requirements, but specific proof will not be required.  Individuals ages 18 to 49 with certain underlying medical conditions or who live/work in high-risk institutional or occupational settings are encouraged to discuss the benefits and risks of getting a booster dose with their healthcare providers.

COVID VACCINE CARDS: Eligible Ohioans are encouraged to bring their Covid vaccine card to their booster appointment. If they cannot find their vaccine card, they should first contact their original vaccine provider to see if their records can be located. If the original vaccine provider is unable to assist, they should contact their local health department. The final available option is to review this information on how to mail a request for your vaccination records

to the Ohio Department of Health.  Replacement vaccine cards are not available from the Ohio Department of Health.  If a vaccine recipient does not have their original vaccine card that should not be a barrier to prevent them from being vaccinated.

MIX AND MATCH COVID BOOSTER DOSES: Eligible individuals who have completed the primary vaccination series can receive a booster dose of a different authorized or approved Covid vaccine. This means:

  • A person who originally received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine can receive a booster dose of the Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer, or Moderna vaccine.
  • A person who originally received the Moderna primary vaccine series can receive a booster dose of the Moderna, Pfizer, or Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
  • A person who originally received the Pfizer primary vaccine series can receive a booster dose of the Pfizer, Moderna, or Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

This mix-and-match approach applies only to booster doses.  The primary series of the two-dose mRNA vaccines must be from the same product.

The half-dose Moderna booster dose should be given to all booster recipients, even if the primary series was different.

Additional recommendations around mix-and-match booster doses, including how individuals can assess their own benefits and risks, and how healthcare providers can best offer advice to patients, will be published in the CDC’s final clinical recommendations.  Those recommendations will be published soon in the CDC’s Interim Clinical Considerations for Use of the Covid Vaccines, and its Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR).

CO-ADMINISTRATION: Booster doses may be given with other vaccines without regard to timing. This includes simultaneous administration of Covid and other vaccines on the same day.
