Updated 2024-2025 COVID-19 Vaccine Recommendation
Everyone ages 6 months and older should get the 2024–2025 COVID-19 vaccine. This includes people who have received a COVID-19 vaccine before and people who have had COVID-19.
The COVID-19 vaccine helps protect you from severe disease, hospitalization, and death. It is especially important to get your 2024–2025 COVID-19 vaccine if you are ages 65 and older, are at high risk for severe COVID-19, or have never received a COVID-19 vaccine. Vaccine protection decreases over time, so it is important to stay up to date with your COVID-19 vaccine.
The new COVID-19 vaccine
The FDA has recently approved updated mRNA COVID-19 Vaccines for the upcoming respiratory illness season (approximately September 2024–May 2025). The vaccines are expected to be available in September, with pharmacies acting as the primary provider of the vaccine. Both the Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines offer renewed protection against the current variants of the COVID-19 virus, which keeps evolving to challenge our immune systems. (FDA press release, August 22, 2024.)
Staying Up to Date with COVID-19 Vaccines
Getting the 2024–2025 COVID-19 vaccine is important because:
- Protection from the COVID-19 vaccine decreases with time.
- COVID-19 vaccines are updated to give you the best protection from the currently circulating strains.
Getting the 2024–2025 COVID-19 vaccine is especially important if you:
- Never received a COVID-19 vaccine
- Are ages 65 years and older
- Are at high risk for severe COVID-19
- Are living in a long-term care facility
- Are pregnant, breastfeeding, trying to get pregnant, or might become pregnant in the future.
- Want to lower your risk of getting Long COVID
Keep in mind, getting a COVID-19 vaccine is a safer, more reliable way to build protection than getting sick with COVID-19.
When are you up to date?
- Ages 12 years and older are up to date when they have received one dose of the 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine by either Moderna or Pfizer-BioNTech.
- Children ages 5-11 years are up to date when they have received one dose of the 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine by either Moderna or Pfizer-BioNTech.

关于疫苗
Are COVID-19 vaccines safe?
是的。COVID-19疫苗经过了与美国所有疫苗都必须遵循的同样严格的审查。在纽约，该州独立的COVID-19临床咨询工作组也批准认为这些COVID-19疫苗是安全有效的。在使用疫苗期间，FDA和CDC一直在监测新的副作用。
疫苗有效吗？
是的。基于临床试验以及现实世界的经验和观察，美国目前可用的所有疫苗都可以保护人们免受COVID-19引起的严重疾病、住院和死亡。没有疫苗是100%有效的，因此一些完全接种疫苗的人仍然会生病。但是，收集到的有关这些“突破性病例”的数据表明，这些人的症状较轻。疫苗还可以减少COVID-19的传播，保护他人。
疫苗会使我我感染COVID-19 吗？
不会。在美国被批准使用或者在审查中的疫苗，都不是采用会造成COVID-19感染或致病的活病毒而制成的。
About Getting vaccinated
接种疫苗会防止我患上COVID-19 吗？
不是。您仍有可能感染此疾病。但如果您及时接种疫苗，就能大幅降低患重症、住院治疗或死亡的风险。
疫苗会在未来的COVID-19病毒检测中引起阳性结果吗？
不会。经授权的疫苗不会在用于发现目前感染的任何检测中产生阳性。
即使我接种了疫苗，我还能感染他人吗？
是的。如果您接触到了 COVID-19 患者，则应该采取预防措施保护周围的其他人，直到您确定自己并未感染（接触患者后约 5 天）。如果您感染了 COVID-19 ，即使您已接种最新疫苗，也应与他人隔离开。
如果我已经感染过冠状病毒，我还应该接种疫苗吗？
是的。科学表明，与您被感染时身体建立的防御能力相比，疫苗可以提供更好、更持久的保护。
我可以在接种COVID-19疫苗的同时接种流感疫苗吗？
Yes. There is no required interval of time between receiving a COVID-19 vaccine and any other vaccine, such as the flu shot (you may want to consider getting one in each arm rather than both in the same arm). The Health Department recommends that everyone age 6 months and older get a flu shot every year. Most local pharmacies provide flu vaccines, or contact your primary care provider.
