COVID-19 Vaccines
The CDC and FDA approved and recommended that everyone 6 months and older receive an updated COVID-19 vaccine to protect against the potentially serious outcomes of COVID-19 this fall and winter, including hospitalization and death. This vaccine is recommended for all patients who received previous COVID-19 vaccines, including the bivalent boosters and the 2023-2024 formulation, and is recommended for all previously unvaccinated individuals.
The updated Moderna 2024-2025 Vaccine will be formulated to combat the KP.2 variant which is expected to be the predominant strain in circulation for 2024-2025. The 2024-2025 COVID-19 Vaccine should be given at least 2 months after any previous dose of a COVID-19 vaccination.
