Health authorities in St. Kitts and Nevis are allowing persons 18 and older to get their booster shots.
If you received your AstraZeneca/Oxford vaccine in February/ March, earlier up in this year and six months whatever elapsed between the second dose and present, you are eligible once you’re 18 years and over, you are eligible to come to any of the health centres and request your Pfizer booster shot so it is available here in the Federation.
