The New Mexico Department of Health has announced that COVID-19 Pfizer vaccine booster scheduling is now available for 16-17-year-olds. This follows federal approvals by the FDA and CDC and a review by the New Mexico Medical Advisory Team late last week.
Parents and guardians can register and schedule their children for vaccine boosters at vaccineNM.org. (Additional instructions are available at vaccineNM.org/kids.) Parents and guardians can also schedule directly with their health care provider. In addition, parents and guardians will be able to find vaccine appointments on the CDC vaccine finder website: Vaccines.gov.
