Do I need a COVID booster? Will it protect against the Omicron variant?
Dr. Charles Prober explains why multiple doses of COVID vaccines are needed to boost your body’s protective response, especially in light of new coronavirus variants like Omicron. *Update: Boosters are now recommended for people 16 years of age and older, and as of January 2022, Pfizer mRNA vaccine boosters are approved for those as young as 12 years of age.
Early data from South Africa suggest that this variant has increased transmissibility and that the current vaccines need an extra boost to do their job. The more help we can offer our immune systems, the better able we will be to slow the spread of the Omicron variant and reduce the severity of any symptoms it might cause.
Watch to learn more about how vaccines and boosters work, and why they are critical in protecting us against coronavirus. Dr. Prober also answers some common questions, such as “Can I mix and match COVID vaccines?“ and “Can I take ibuprofen after getting my COVID vaccine?“.
