Governor Larry Hogan is urging Marylanders to get the new COVID-19 boosters. The governor announced the state health department will launch public service announcements this fall encouraging residents to get the new bivalent vaccine and annual flu shots before the holidays. Hogan and First Lady Yumi Hogan recently received their COVID boosters ahead of the governor’s ongoing economic trade mission to Asia. Marylanders 12 and older are eligible to get the new shots, which are aimed at protecting against the original virus and its omicron variants.
