UPDATED CDC GUIDANCE (APRIL 2023)

The CDC shared simplified recommendations for COVID-19 vaccination this week based on new rules issued by the FDA.


  • People ages 65 and older and people who are immunocompromised have the option to receive an additional bivalent vaccine dose.

  • Everyone 6 years and older should receive a bivalent vaccine regardless of whether they completed their primary (monovalent) series. People ages 6 years to 64 years who have already received a bivalent vaccine are not eligible to receive an additional dose unless they are immunocompromised.

  • Multiple vaccine doses are still recommended for children younger than 6 years. Recommendations will vary by age, vaccine, and which vaccines were previously received.

  • Monovalent (original) Moderna and Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines are no longer authorized for use. Updated (bivalent) Moderna and Pfizer vaccines are now authorized for use in everyone ages 6 months and older.

  • Alternatives to mRNA COVID-19 vaccines are still available for people who cannot or will not receive an mRNA vaccine. The updated guidance does not affect monovalent Novavax or Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) vaccines.

 

Additional/booster doses are recommended for people who are moderately to severely immunocompromised. Learn more.
