The CDC recommends an updated COVID-19 booster shot to protect against COVID-19 and Omicron variants.
Booster shots are available for individuals aged 12 and older since September 2, 2022, and for those aged 5-11 years since October 12, 2022. For children aged 6 months-4 years who completed the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine primary series, boosters became available on December 9, 2022.

Vaccines are one of the most important things you can do for your health, your family's health, and the health of your community.
Vaccines protect you against the flu, measles, covid-19, and chickenpox. They also protect babies who are too young to get vaccinated. When more people get vaccinated, it helps stop the spread of disease in our community. The more people who are vaccinated, the harder it is for infection to spread.
Vaccination is one of the best ways to keep your family healthy and safe from illnesses like polio, meningitis C, diphtheria, tetanus, and mokeypox.

GET THE FACTS
SAVE LIVES!

Current data from the manufacturers for the vaccine, validated by the FDA, strongly indicate that the vaccines are safe and effective. These vaccines are undergoing the same rigorous clinical trial protocols and safety evaluations that have been used for years and that have been proven effective for other vaccines we commonly use in the U.S. There are no reported serious safety concerns from the current vaccines. As is their practice, the CDC and FDA will continue to monitor the vaccine.
VACCINE SCHEDULE
KEEP SAFE!
The reason to follow CDC’s recommended immunization schedule is that it protects you and anyone around you with a weakened immune system.
For example, for you, whooping cough may mean a lingering cough for several weeks, but it can be very serious—even deadly—for babies less than a year old.
