On Sept. 1, 2022, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention endorsed the use of updated COVID-19 booster shots that are specifically tailored to combat the two most prevalent omicron subvariants, BA.4 and BA.5. The decision comes just a day after the Food and Drug Administration’s emergency use authorization of the shots. The CDC’s backing will enable a full roll-out of the reformulated vaccines to begin within days. COVID-19 bivalent booster is in. It covers the old strains (Alpha, Beta, Delta, etc., and Omicron antigens). Call the office at 281-313-7468 or email houstonvaccines@gmail.com. It must be 2 months since your last vaccine and this again is a booster not an initial dose. We are now in network with over 60 insurance providers for a no-copay visit. |
