I totally saw this coming with the rise of the Delta Variant!
U.S. Health officials are officially recommending that Americans get a third vaccine shot.
The booster shot should be received 8 months after the second shot – meaning the first round of boosters will begin next month for the earliest vaccine recipients.
The third booster shot applies to people who got the two-dose Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. Officials are still gathering data on the one-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine to determine when or if booster shots will be necessary.
I got the Moderna shot back in March so I’ll be due for mine in November which is perfect considering I sadly predict cases getting worse as the weather gets colder.
