Governor Justice Encourages the Booster Shot

Gov. Jim Justice made another plea for more West Virginians to get their COVID-19 booster shot, noting that only a fraction of the state’s vaccinated population has so far received the extra shot. The governor said the state’s medical experts would say if you’re six months out from your initial vaccines, and you have not gotten your booster shot, you may be no better off than those who never got vaccinated. More than 48,000 West Virginians have received their booster shot.
