Warren County Health Department Administrator Jenna Link informs the FDA, CDC, and IDPH have recently adopted the recommendations for a second booster on the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines:

“This is a second booster for Moderna and Pfizer both, 50 years and older four months from your first booster. Or if you are 12 and older, and you received Pfizer and are immunocompromised, you should receive a second booster four months after your first one.”

Vaccination clinics continue to be available at the Health Department Monday through Thursdays 1 to 4 pm. Schedule an appointment by calling 309-734-0823.
