Third Dose – By Appointment Only
By appointment only, National Jewish Health is administering third doses of Pfizer vaccine to qualified patients and members of the public ages 12 and above if it has been at least five months after receiving Pfizer, six months after receiving or Moderna, or two months after receiving the J&J vaccine.
We are following the current CDPHE and CDC guidelines for booster eligibility:
The current recommendation is to receive the same dose as the initial series, however mixing vaccine types is allowed. If you initially received Johnson & Johnson vaccine, you can get any of the three vaccines (Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson) as your booster shot. If you received Pfizer or Moderna for your initial series, you can get either Pfizer or Moderna as your booster shot.
