Ozarks to receive new Covid-19 vaccine this fall

The new COVID-19 vaccine, targeting the Omicron variant, is expected to be available in the Ozarks by the end of September. Researchers from Moderna have reported that the latest booster appears to work against the Omicron subvariant. While it is uncertain if the new vaccine will match the EG5 variant exactly, indications suggest that it will be effective. The Webster County Health Department advises individuals who have already received the bivalent booster to wait for the new vaccine. Wastewater sampling is being used to track variants in the area, and once the new vaccine is released, it will be accessible through the county's mobile unit.
