The Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recently amended the emergency use authorization (EUA) for both Moderna and Janssen/Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines to be administered as a single booster doses. Earlier this month the FDA and CDC granted similar endorsement of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for use as a single dose booster.

To see if you are eligible, please click here to refer to the latest CDC media statement and the CDC general booster information.

Note:

• Those eligible who received the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines can receive the booster shot 6 months or more after their initial series.
• Those eligible who received the J&J vaccine can receive the booster shot two or more months after they were vaccinated.
• CDC recommendations now allow for mix and match dosing for booster shots; eligible individuals may choose which vaccine they prefer.

• Completed BOTH doses of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine regimen at least 6 months ago, or
• Received the J&J vaccine at least 2 months ago

To receive the booster dose, you must schedule an appointment with TriHealth (click here to schedule) or visit a community vaccination site outside of TriHealth offering these vaccines (click here for information). 

TriHealth team member-only Booster clinics at Good Samaritan Hospital and Bethesda North Outpatient Imaging (BNOI) will end on the following dates:

• Good Samaritan Hospital  |  Tuesday, November 23 (7-11:30am)
• Bethesda North Outpatient Imaging (BNOI)  | Wednesday, November 24 (7-11:30am)

After these dates, TriHealth team members may schedule an appointment for their booster shot through MyChart, by visiting TriHealth.com/Vaccine or by calling 513-86-COVID. 

Please bring your vaccine card from your first vaccine series to your booster appointment. If you lost or misplaced your vaccine card, please click here to review the "Instructions for Recovering Lost Vaccine Card Information" section on our vaccine page on Bridge. 

Currently, the single COVID booster dose is not required as a condition of TriHealth employment.
