"Get the Latest Covid Booster and Stay Protected in the New Covid Era"

Major pharmacy chains in the US have started rolling out appointments for the updated Covid-19 vaccine, which is effective against the dominant strain in the country. The CDC recommends that everyone aged 6 months and older get the updated Covid-19 vaccine, with specific recommendations for different age groups and immunocompromised individuals. Flu shots and RSV vaccines are also available, with the CDC urging people to get vaccinated against all three respiratory viruses. Timing for the Covid-19 booster shot depends on when the last vaccine was received, and it is safe to get the flu shot and Covid-19 shot on the same day. Most people with health insurance can get the updated Covid-19 shot at no cost, and uninsured or underinsured individuals can access it for free through government programs.
