The Union County Board of County Commissioners advises Union County parents and caregivers that new bivalent COVID-19 booster shots are now available at County-run clinics for infants and young children, beginning at 6 months of age.
Parents and caregivers are strongly advised to ensure that infants and young children are vaccinated and boosted as soon as they are age-eligible.
“The bivalent booster formula protects against the both the original and the Omicron strains of the COVID-19 virus, helping to save lives and prevent severe health outcomes. By offering the new formula at our clinics, we continue to build on our efforts to provide the Union County community with the latest resources for protecting themselves and their families during the pandemic,” said Union County Commissioner Chair Rebecca L. Williams.
Union County’s free COVID-19 clinics began dispensing the bivalent booster formula for adults and older children earlier this year.
Union County also continues to provide free COVID-19 vaccines and booster shots for all eligible age groups at two clinics in Plainfield and Roselle.
The new bivalent formulas for infants and young children will be available at County-run clinics beginning on Tuesday, December 20 as follows:
Before making an appointment, parents and caregivers are reminded that a two-month waiting period applies between shots.
