(Updated) Where to Get Fourth Covid Vaccine Shots in Beijing
Second boosters for Covid-19 – aka your fourth Covid jab, if you’ve gotten three already – were made available this past December for foreigners in Beijing.
It’s important to note if you’ve tested positive for Covid recently, you will need to wait six months before getting vaccinated. When asked why this was the case, the hospitals and clinics we reached out to all told us if you’ve been infected, your body already has the necessary antibodies to keep the virus at bay within a six month period.
As of February, four locations are offering fourth Covid boosters for foreigners. They are as follows:
New Century Riverville Clinic
