Updated COVID-19 booster shots are now available at state-run vaccination sites, nearby Mall of America (MOA), many pharmacies and at doctors' offices.
The updated boosters target both the original coronavirus and the more recent Omicron BA.4 and BA.5 variants that have caused the majority of recent COVID cases nationwide.
While more than 80 percent of full-time MAC employees have been vaccinated, the effectiveness of these shots wane over time. That's why it's so important to consider getting a booster shot.
Also, with winter approaching and people moving indoors, it's a good way to protect yourself, family and colleagues from these highly transmissible coronavirus strains.
Please consider getting a booster shot.
