The West Virginia Department of Health (DH) is informing all West Virginians ages 65 and older they are eligible for an additional dose of the updated COVID-19 vaccine, following the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) recent recommendation.
“As the data consistently shows, those who are older and immunocompromised are the most vulnerable to the severe effects of COVID-19,” said Secretary Sherri Young, DO, MBA, FAAFP. “It is for this reason we encourage those individuals to strongly consider getting an additional dose.”
