Booster shots are now being produced to target new variants of concern. In September, the UK became the first country to approve a variant-specific "bivalent" booster shot. The vaccines, known as "bivalent" vaccines, mix a vaccine formula against the original virus with a new formula specifically designed to fight infections caused by the variants. As the virus evolves it looks less and less like the original virus. By developing vaccines that target more evolved variants, it is hoped that these vaccines will also protect against future variants that may be more similar to the new variants than the original virus.

We hope this new formula will be more effective than the formula just approved in the UK in protecting Americans against the variant and any variants that may evolve after it. When should you get your next booster shot It seems that the earlier you get your booster shot the better, giving you specific guidance to follow to ensure you get the best protection.
In fact research shows that giving a booster shot too soon or too soon after infection may reduce the efficacy of the booster shot. General guidance recommends that adults 20 years and older may need to delay their booster shot for 6 months after being infected with COVID-19 and should wait at least 6 months after the last shot before getting another booster shot. Of course you should always consult your doctor about the best time to vaccinate, especially if you are older and at higher risk for serious infections or are determining the correct vaccination schedule for your child.
