(RTTNews) - Walgreens said it now offers the Food and Drug Administration authorized and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or CDC recommended updated COVID-19 boosters to eligible individuals ages 5 years and older at select locations nationwide.

The updated COVID-19 booster offers more effective protection against COVID-19, including Omicron BA.4 and BA.5, the latest variants and the dominant virus strains in the United States.
Walgreens noted that Children ages 5-11 who completed a COVID-19 vaccine primary series or received a booster dose at least two months ago can now receive an updated COVID-19 booster dose.
