Important update on COVID-19 vaccine booster shots

Important update on COVID-19 vaccine booster shots

新冠肺炎疫苗加強劑的重要新資訊



If you previously got 2 doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, you can get a booster shot of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine if you fall into one of these groups:

如果您之前接種了2 劑輝瑞新冠肺炎疫苗,並且您屬於以下群體之一,則可以注射輝瑞新館肺炎疫苗加強劑:


  • 65 years and older 65岁及以上

  • 18+ who have underlying medical conditions 18歲以上且患有基礎疾病

  • 18+ who work in high-risk settings 18歲以上且在高風險環境中工作

  • 18+ who live in high-risk settings 18歲以上且在高風險環境中生活


People aged 65 years and older and adults 50–64 years with underlying medical conditions should get a booster shot of the Pfizer-BioNTeh vaccine. The risk of severe illness from COVID-19 increases with age, and can also increase for adults of any age with underlying medical conditions.

65歲及以上的人群以及患有基礎疾病的50-64歲成年人應接種輝瑞-生物科技疫苗加強劑。 COVID-19重病風險隨著年齡的增長而增加,患有基礎疾病的任何年齡段人群的重病風險也會增加。


Residents aged 18 years and older of long-term care settings should get a booster shot of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. Because residents in long-term care settings live closely together in group settings and are often older adults with underlying medical conditions, they are at increased risk of infection and severe illness from COVID-19.

長期護理環境中18歲及以上的住戶應接種一劑輝瑞-生物科技疫苗加強針。因為長期護理環境中的住戶在密切的集體環境中生活且通常為患有基礎疾病的老年人,他們面臨更高的COVID-19感染和重病高風險。


People aged 18–49 years with underlying medical conditions may get a booster shot of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine based on their individual benefits and risks. Adults aged 18–49 years who have underlying medical conditions are at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19. However, that risk is likely not as high as it would be for adults aged 50 years and older who have underlying medical conditions. People aged 18–49 years who have underlying medical conditions may get a booster shot after considering their individual risks and benefits. This recommendation may change in the future as more data become available.

患有基礎疾病的18-49歲人群也可以根據個人受益和風險情況接種輝瑞-生物科技疫苗加強針。患有基礎疾病的18-49歲成年人面臨COVID-19重病高風險,但不如50歲及以上患有基礎疾病的成年人高。 18-49歲患有基礎疾病的人群可在衡量個人風險和受益後接種加強針。隨著更多數據可用,本建議未來可能會有變化。


People aged 18–64 years at increased risk for COVID-19 exposure and transmission because of occupational or institutional setting may get a booster shot of Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine based on their individual benefits and risks. Adults aged 18–64 years who work or reside in certain settings (e.g., health care, schools, correctional facilities, homeless shelters) may be at increased risk of being exposed to COVID-19, which could be spreading where they work or reside. Since that risk can vary across settings and based on how much COVID-19 is spreading in a community, people aged 18–64 years who are at increased risk for COVID-19 exposure and transmission because of occupational or institutional setting may get a booster shot after considering their individual risks and benefits. This recommendation may change in the future as more data become available.

年齡在18-64歲的人群因職業或機構環境而接觸和傳播COVID-19的風險更大,這些人可根據各自的受益和風險情況接種輝瑞-生物科技疫苗加強針劑。年齡在18-64歲的成年人在某些環境(例如醫療保健、學校、懲教機構、無家可歸者收容所)工作或居住,可能面臨接觸COVID-19的更高風險,因為病毒可能會在他們工作或居住的地方傳播。這種風險可能因環境而異,且基於COVID-19在社區中的傳播程度,因職業或機構環境而面臨COVID-19接觸和傳播風險更高的18-64歲人群在考慮其各自的風險和受益情況後,可以接種加強針劑。隨著可用數據的增多,此建議在未來可能會更改。


You can get your booster shot at least 6 months after you complete your second dose of the Pfizer vaccine. The booster shot can help strengthen and prolong your protection against COVID-19.

您可以在完成注射第二劑輝瑞新冠肺炎疫苗至少6個月後,再接受注射加強劑。注射加強劑有助於加強和延長對您的保護,避免感染新冠肺炎。


Visit CDC.gov for more information on other groups already vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine that may be eligible for a booster shot.

請訪問網站 CDC.gov,來了解有關可能有資格注射加強劑的,已接種輝瑞新冠肺炎疫苗的其他群體的更多資訊。


Remember: Medicare covers a Pfizer vaccine booster shot at no cost to you.

請記住:聯邦醫療保險為您提供注射免費的輝瑞新冠肺炎疫苗加強劑。
