BREAKING: NYC Health Dept authorizes covid booster shots for *all* NYers aged 18+, as long as at least 6 months since 2nd Pfizer/Moderna dose or 2 months since J&J dose.
This is a welcome move at a time when cases are rising in NYC.

New York City’s top doc said today that all New Yorkers age 18 and older can get a Covid booster.
The FDA and CDC have yet to authorize boosters for all adults, but the city doesn’t care. There are 6.6 million people aged 18 and up in the City and 630,000 have received boosters so far.
Mitchell Katz, the head of NYC’s public hospital system, goes even further and says he thinks all New Yorkers now qualify for the booster because the “density of the city” puts them at a higher risk for covid.
