Ed Markey Gets Fourth Coronavirus Shot

April 4, 2022

U.S. Senator Ed Markey (D-Malden) got another coronavirus vaccine on Friday, April 1.

It was the senator’s fourth coronavirus shot. It was his second booster shot.

Markey says he sees it as an opportunity to encourage others to also get their second booster shot, if they’re eligible.

“I just got my second booster shot. If you’re over 50 or immunocompromised don’t wait, go get yours too at http://vaccines.gov,” Markey tweeted.

People under 50 and those who are not immunocompromised are not yet eligible for a fourth coronavirus vaccine. It’s unclear if and when that will change. 

Currently, there is no fifth coronavirus vaccine dose available to the public.
