COVID-19 booster: What you need to know
Before you get in line for Pfizer's COVID-19 booster shot, make sure you're eligible per CDC guidelines.
The shot is available for people ages 65 and older, anyone 18 and older with underlying medical conditions, and those who are at high risk for COVID-19 exposure and transmission because of where they live or work.
People who are eligible can get the third dose of Pfizer's vaccine at least six months after a second dose.
Another key to getting the shot is you can only get it if you're fully vaccinated with Pfizer's two-dose vaccine.
