Question:
Are medical students required to have a third dose of the COVID vaccine?
Answer:
The interim guidance on a third dose is that those 18-49 years old who are healthcare workers or who have underlying conditions MAY receive a third Pfizer dose (booster) if it has been 6 months or longer since dose 2 of either Moderna or Pfizer.
TMC is not requiring a third dose as part of their mandate. At this time, they are offering a third dose vaccine by appointment. Interested students should phone 816-404-CARE.
