THE BIG BOOST
• With Omicron in the community, getting a COVID-19 booster is the best thing you can do to
protect yourself, your whānau and your community. While two shots were great protection
against Delta, you need a booster for Omicron.
• Boosters also help slow the spread of the virus. They lower the chances of getting very sick
from COVID-19 so more of us can stay well and that helps free up our hospitals for people
who need care.
• You can get boosted if you are 18 or over and had your second Pfizer vaccination at least
three months ago.

If at anytime you are unsure, please ask as the staff - we are here to help.
