COVID UPDATE
CDC Recommends New 2024-2025 COVID-19 and Flu Vaccines for Fall/Winter
The CDC recommends getting the updated 2024-2025 COVID-19 and flu vaccines to protect against serious illness this fall and winter.
The Food and Drug Administration approved the updated COVID-19 vaccines on August 22, 2024. The new shots will be available through your pharmacy and doctor’s office within a week.
It is safe to receive both vaccines at the same time. Vaccination is crucial to prevent severe cases that might result in hospitalization or death.
COVID-19 Vaccine:
Everyone 6 months and older should get the updated 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine, even if you have been vaccinated before. This new vaccine will protect against the latest COVID-19 variants that are making people sick. Make a plan to get your updated COVID-19 vaccine with your pharmacy or healthcare provider today.
Flu Vaccine:
The CDC also recommends that everyone 6 months and older get the updated 2024-2025 flu vaccine. The best time to get vaccinated is in September or October, but some people may need to get it earlier:
Pregnant women in their third trimester can get the flu shot as early as July or August to protect their newborns.
Very young children who need two doses should get the first dose as soon as the vaccine is available, with the second dose given four weeks later.
Vaccination is essential for preventing serious illness from COVID & Flu.
