DOH's vaccine and booster resources updated to match current guidance

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) expanded COVID-19 booster eligibility for children ages 5-11. In addition, the CDC is strengthening its recommendation that those 12 and older who are immunocompromised and those 50 and older should receive a second booster at least four months after their first.

As COVID-19 cases increase across the country, these recommendations will help restore and enhance protection against severe infection.

We have updated the following vaccine resources:

• Vaccine Booster Doses webpage
• Do I Need a Booster? infographic
• I Am Immunocompromised infographic
• What Parents/Guardians Should Know Pediatric flyer
• Pediatric School toolkit
