COVID-19 Vaccine

The CDC recommends everyone 6 months and older gets an updated COVID-19 vaccine to protect against the potentially serious outcomes of COVID-19 illness this fall and winter.

The updated COVID vaccines for the fall/winter 2024–25 season are based on newer variants. They are the only COVID vaccines that are available this season. The recommendation is one single dose of an updated COVID-19 vaccine formulation. (People who are immunocompromised or ages 6 months to 4 years may need more than one dose of the 2024–25 vaccine.)

People 5 years and older should wait at least two months after getting the last dose of any COVID-19 vaccine before getting the updated COVID vaccine.
