Important Updates -- COVID-19 and Immunization Services
In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is important for providers to maintain childhood immunization services when possible. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has released guidance for pediatric healthcare providers on strategies to maintain immunization services. Providers should prioritize immunizations for newborns and for children through two years of age. Adult immunizations should be provided only when other preventive health care appointments are scheduled or when the benefit of receiving an immunization outweighs the risk of exposure to the virus that causes COVID-19. The CDC has released additional guidance for healthcare providers regarding adult immunization services and COVID-19.
