As of October 5, 31,332 Chelsea residents have been fully vaccinated — that’s 73.2% of all City residents.

Pfizer COVID-19 booster shots are now available at the vaccination clinic at the Chelsea Senior Center

Pfizer booster shots are available to those who have previously received the Pfizer vaccine, and six months have passed since receiving the second dose. Booster shots for Pfizer have been approved by the CDC, and are a safe and effective way to protect yourself against COVID-19. They are only available for residents over the age of 65, or anyone between 18 and 64 who is at increased risk of COVID due to underlying medical conditions or due to their workplace environment.
