Christian Hayes, Clinical Systems Manager for Primary Care, preparing vaccines as staff at COMTREA receive the Pfizer vaccine.
(Jefferson City) Governor Mike Parson and his wife, Teresa, are planning to get a booster shot of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Parson is urging eligible Missourians to get the booster.
The recommendation comes after the C-D-C approved a third shot of the Pfizer vaccine for seniors, people with underlying medical conditions and people ages 18 to 64 years old at increased risk of being exposed.
Parson received the vaccine in February after he and the first lady contracted the virus last year and recovered.
