NEW YORK - Following approval by the CDC and FDA, all Rite Aid locations in New York have begun administering a second booster of the mRNA Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines to eligible individuals.
Eligible individuals include those aged 50 or older and certain immunocompromised individuals aged 12 and older. These populations may receive a second booster four or more months after their first booster. Eligible adults who received a primary vaccine and booster dose of the J&J vaccine at least four months ago may also receive a second booster dose using an mRNA vaccine.
Rite Aid has five stores in and within 20 miles of Saratoga, according to the company web site. Eligible customers may walk in today or schedule an appointment at www.riteaid.com/pharmacy/scheduler. Customers may receive their second booster dose at Rite Aid regardless of where they received their primary series or first booster.
