The CDC has officially adopted its updated immunization guidance:
COVID-19 vaccination is now based on individual/shared decision-making between patients and providers.
The prescription requirement has been removed. No need for a qualifying condition to receive the vaccine.
These changes take effect immediately, aligning with the latest recommendations from the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP).
CDC updated its adult and child immunization schedules to apply individual-based decision-making to COVID-19 vaccination.
