The Federal District will start in this to haveTuesday (21) to apply the booster dose against covid-19 for citizens who have completed the vaccination cycle four months ago. The Ministry of Health changed the recommendation on the booster dose, for people aged between 18 and 60 years, and reduced the interval from five to four months.
The interval is considered from the conclusion of the vaccination cycle, that is, the person must count four months after the Monday dose.

People aged 18 or over can be vaccinated with the booster dose. The locations in the Federal District will be informed on the website of Department of Health focused on vaccination against covid-19. The assessment of the Federal District government is that, with the new interval, 419,000 people can already be immunized.
