Where to get boosters for students 12 years and older, now?

[Anonymous]

Thought it would be helpful to start this thread, with kids going back to classrooms tomorrow in many places (including APS). I will start: Preston’s Pharmacy in Arlington on Lee Highway is offering boosters for kids 12 and up, on a walk-in basis, today. Last I checked, Arlington County vaccination centers were booking 12+ boosters starting tomorrow. What else is available now?

I’m surprised they’re already offering it! My understanding was that FDA signed off on boosters for 12-15, but CDC approval is still required before they can be officially administered to that age group.

I am also surprised! It’s not fully approved yet.

They are offering it for kids under 16 that are immune compromised.... without asking.

My kid isn’t immunocompromised. We’ll wait a few more days until it’s officially approved.
