Weekly Update:
- Governor Roy Cooper sent a letter to the North Carolina Congressional Delegation urging Congress to act immediately on a funding package for COVID-19 so that the state can stay ready in the event of a future surge. Read more.
- The North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services yesterday hosted a live Cafecito and Spanish language tele-town hall to discuss COVID-19 vaccines and boosters. Watch.
COVID-19 Vaccinations:
- A free COVID-19 vaccine is available to all who want it. Vaccination is open to everyone 5 and older. Visit MySpot.nc.gov to find a location.
- To strengthen and extend protections against COVID-19, boosters are now available to all North Carolinians 12 and older. If you are eligible, you should get a booster now.
- If you received the Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, you can get your booster five months after your second shot. If you received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, you can get your booster two months after your shot.
- You can choose any brand of COVID-19 vaccine for your booster shot. However, it is recommended that people get boosted with an mRNA vaccine – Moderna or Pfizer-BioNTech, instead of the Johnson and Johnson vaccine – unless you have a medical reason to not receive an mRNA vaccine.
- For those ages 12 and older who are immunocompromised and who received the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, or ages 18 and older who received the Moderna vaccine, the CDC recommends receiving three initial doses plus a booster dose at least three months after the third dose.
- The CDC also recommends a third dose of Pfizer for children ages 5 to 11 who have compromised immune systems.

COVID-19 Testing & Treatment:
- If you develop symptoms, get tested immediately and isolate until you receive your test results. If you test positive, follow isolation recommendations. If you do not develop symptoms, get tested at least five days after you last had close contact with someone with COVID-19.
- To find a testing site near you, visit ncdhhs.gov/GetTested. For an up-to-date list of no-cost community testing events, visit the No-Cost Testing Events webpage. Additionally, all North Carolinians can request a free at-home COVID-19 testing kit.
- COVID-19 treatments can lower your risk of hospitalization or death. If you have symptoms, don't wait:
- Talk to your doctor about treatment
- Or call 1-877-332-6585 (English) or 1-877-366-0310 (Spanish). The call center can help if you do not have a health care provider.
- Treatments are not a substitute for vaccination. Vaccines continue to offer the best protection against COVID-19.
