Adults aged 18 and older can get either Pfizer or Moderna for their third dose. People aged 5 years and older who are not immunocompromised should get their third dose at least five months after the second dose. This dose is part of the primary vaccine series. The timing of your third dose depends on your age and whether or not you are immunocompromised.Ĭhildren aged 6 months through 4 years should get their third dose at least eight weeks after their second dose. You should receive the same type of vaccine for your second dose that you received for your first dose. This second dose timing may be best for men and boys aged 12 to 39, who are at higher risk of myocarditis compared to other people. Waiting up to eight weeks between doses may reduce your risk of a rare side effect called myocarditis, a type of heart inflammation. Some people may get their second dose up to eight weeks (two months) after their first. This is the recommended schedule for people who are moderately to severely immunocompromised, adults ages 65 years and older, people who may be at high risk of getting very sick from COVID-19, and others who need protection quickly. Some people should get their second dose three weeks after their first. Talk with your/your child’s health care provider about when to schedule your second dose.
