Are you scheduled for, or seeking, testing at one of the Curative sites?

To keep everyone safe ahead of the potential weather event, Curative test sites will close early - at 2 PM - on Sunday, January 16. This small modification will allow patients and staff sufficient time to travel home.

All appointments scheduled after 2pm will be accepted earlier in the day, or today, without any issues. Those with existing appointments should have also received a notification of the change.

Anyone seeking testing is encouraged to get ahead of the demand by going today. Only one site currently has appointments for tomorrow.

DISCLAIMER: The following information is from the CDC. We are not an official medical source. Speak to your health care professional with any individual concerns about whether you should get a booster OR an additional dose as an immunocompromised individual.

This information is updated as of 10/21/2021:

To find a vaccine location in your area, visit https://www.vaccines.gov/.

There are now booster recommendations for all three available COVID-19 vaccines in the United States. Eligible individuals may choose which vaccine they receive as a booster dose. Some people may have a preference for the vaccine type that they originally received, and others may prefer to get a different booster. CDC’s recommendations now allow for this type of mix and match dosing for booster shots.

MODERNA/PFIZER BOOSTERS

A booster dose of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines has been approved to be given six months after the completion of the second dose for the following groups:

Vaccinated individuals aged 65 or older

Individuals at high risk for severe COVID-19:
-Those in long-term care facilities (regardless of age)
-Those 50-64 years with underlying medical conditions
-Those 18-49 years with underlying medical conditions, based on individual benefit/risk
-Those 18-64 years who are at increased risk for COVID-19 exposure and transmission because of occupational or institutional setting, based on individual benefit/risk
**Underlying medical conditions include: cancer, stroke or cerebrovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, chronic lung diseases, dementia or other neurological conditions, diabetes (Type 1 & 2), Down Syndrome, heart conditions, HIV infection, immunocompromised state, liver disease, obesity, pregnancy or recent pregnancy, sickle cell disease, smoking (current or former), stem cell or organ transplant, and substance use disorders.

**Patients can self-attest to being included in a high-risk category.
**For those who have not received their annual flu shot, CDC states "COVID-19 vaccines may be administered without regard to timing of other vaccines. This includes simultaneous administration of COVID-19 vaccine and other vaccines on the same day." This means you can get your flu shot and a COVID vaccine (any number in the series) on the same day.

J&J BOOSTERS

J&J boosters have been approved for all individuals 18+ two months after initial dose.

THIS IS SEPARATE INFORMATION FOR IMMUNOCOMPROMISED INDIVIDUALS:

COVID-19 Vaccines for Moderately to Severely Immunocompromised People

-CDC recommends that people with moderately to severely compromised immune systems receive an additional dose of mRNA COVID-19 vaccine at least 28 days after a second dose of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. This includes people who have:

-Been receiving active cancer treatment for tumors or cancers of the blood
-Received an organ transplant and are taking medicine to suppress the immune system
-Received a stem cell transplant within the last 2 years or are taking medicine to suppress the immune system
-Moderate or severe primary immunodeficiency (such as DiGeorge syndrome, Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome)
-Advanced or untreated HIV infection
-Active treatment with high-dose corticosteroids or other drugs that may suppress your immune response
-People should talk to their healthcare provider about their medical condition, and whether getting an additional dose is appropriate for them.

27/09/2021

OK, folks - the folks in charge say if you got a Pfizer vaccine, you can get a booster 6, yes, 6 months after your second shot... so here we go again, baby:

We will be hosting a PFIZER booster clinic at the Brentwood Volunteer Fire Company Tuesday, October 5th. That's 1 week away. It's running from 10am-7PM giving everyone plenty of time to pick a time that works for you.

Please fill out the consent form that you will be emailed, and if you can make a copy of your insurance card, drivers license, and Medicare Part B card ahead of time, it really helps move the line more quickly. We can't wait to see you!!

I realize this isn’t exactly in the scope of this page, but as cases continue to rise and our hospitals are filling with more COVID patients, our health care workers are still fighting an unimaginable battle - but this time around there are no parades, no meals being delivered, no thank you cards.

I’m posting this in the hope that it will inspire people to show our health care workers some love and support. Let’s show them that there’s a whole army of people thankful for what they’re doing and continue to do. We may be putting together an official fundraiser soon, but for now, I’m hoping individuals will be inspired to say thank you on their own. Thank you! 💙

For people who are eligible to get the booster shot, you can call 844-UPMCVAC (844-876-2822) to schedule an appointment.
