It is important that everyone has the recommended COVID-19 vaccination protection. Recommendations vary by age and risk group. A booster dose can be given if at least three months have passed from a coronavirus infection. If you have had a coronavirus infection during October-December 2022, you do not have to take a booster dose during the first months of 2023 (3 months after you have been ill).
