City of Clio issued the following announcement on Nov 22.

COVID BOOSTER endorsed broad adult eligibility for either the Pfizer or Moderna boosters once six months have elapsed since recipients finished the two-dose vaccines.

The federal actions Friday, November 19, 2021 open up boosters to millions more Americans age 18 or older, including those otherwise healthy. Already, people who were immunocompromised, 65 and older, living in long-term care settings or otherwise at higher risk were eligible to receive third doses or COVID  boosters. 

These higher-risk groups were also eligible for a booster of the one-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine. The CDC has not yet signed off on making the J and J boosters broadly available to adults. But last month, the CDC endorsed a mix-and-match approach to boosters, allowing those who initially were vaccinated with J & J to seek a Moderna or Pfizer booster
