Keeping up with vaccines, boosters, and eligibility in COVID Q&A

Vaccine season has arrived, at least for the vaccines people used to get in the autumn, like the annual flu shot.

This year features not just the option of three COVID-19 vaccines, but the offering of third or booster shots. But there are still people choosing not to get vaccinated, even if it means losing a job.

That and the still-dropping numbers of new cases are the backdrop for COVID at the moment. Dr. Jim Shames, Jackson County Medical Director, joins us for weekly Q&A sessions.

Ask your question at 800-838-3760 or JX@jeffnet.org.
