     Pfizer and Moderna: Wednesdays On September 11, 2024, CDC recommended a COVID-19 vaccine updated for 2024-2025 for everyone aged 6 months and older to protect against serious illness.

The main reason to get vaccinated against COVID-19 is to protect yourself against severe illness, hospitalization, and even death. COVID-19 vaccines also reduce the chance of having Long

COVID. This vaccine is expected to provide better protection against variants that are currently making people sick. The updated COVID-19 vaccines are similar to earlier COVID-19 vaccines

that were safely administered to hundreds of millions of Americans during the pandemic. Last fall and winter virus season, people who received the 2023-2024 COVID-19 vaccine had greater

protection against severe illness and hospitalization than those who did not receive that vaccine. We are still at risk of COVID-19 since the virus continues to change and new variants

emerge. Additionally, protection from COVID-19 vaccines and infection decline over time. An updated COVID-19 vaccine provides enhanced protection against the variants currently responsible

for most hospitalizations in the United States. (Staying Up to Date with COVID-19 Vaccines) To get the latest updates and sign up to stay informed about COVID-19 vaccines, visit our vaccine
