Higher infection level predicted
In recent weeks, wastewater surveillance data, our best predictor of community infection levels, have shown very high COVID-19 viral levels, even exceeding the January surge in some areas. Although hospitalizations have continued to rise across the Bay Area, those numbers are much lower than in previous surges — an ongoing reminder of the effectiveness of vaccination to protect against severe illness. Our region is also seeing the newer variants emerge (BA.2.12.1, BA.4 and BA.5) that have very high transmissibility.

The Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) recommends COVID-19 booster shots to certain groups of people based on their age, health condition or occupation, and also to anyone who received the Johnson & Johnson/Janssen COVID-19 vaccine at least two months ago.
Boosters can be scheduled for:

- Individuals 18+ who received a Moderna COVID-19 vaccine at least five months after their second dose
- Individuals 18+ who received the Johnson & Johnson/Janssen COVID-19 vaccine at least two months ago

**Individuals aged 12-17 can only receive the Pfizer-BioNTech booster. Individuals aged 18 and older may choose which vaccine they receive as a booster dose.
**Individuals with recent COVID-19 infection may receive their booster dose after their symptoms resolve and they have met criteria to discontinue isolation per CDC guidelines.
