As COVID-19 continues to circulate, it is recommended that you stay up to date with your COVID-19 vaccinations.
A dose of XBB 1.5-containing COVID-19 mRNA vaccine is recommended for individuals 6 months and older if it has been 6 months from a previous COVID-19 vaccine dose or known SARS-CoV-2 infection (whichever is later) to give a better immune response against currently circulating COVID-19 strains.
Receiving a dose of XBB formulation this fall, heading into respiratory illness season, will maximize protection against COVID-19 outcomes when peak circulation of the virus is expected.
