Important Information Regarding Vaccinations
during Covid-19 Pandemic
during Covid-19 Pandemic
Efforts to reduce transmission of COVID-19, such as stay-at-home and shelter-in-place orders, have led to decreased use of routine preventive medical services, including immunization services. Ensuring that routine vaccination is maintained or reinitiated during the COVID-19 pandemic is essential for protecting individuals and communities from vaccine-preventable diseases and outbreaks. Routine vaccination prevents illnesses that lead to unnecessary medical visits, hospitalizations and further strain the healthcare system. For the upcoming influenza season, influenza vaccination will be paramount to reduce the impact of respiratory illnesses in the population and resulting burdens on the healthcare system during the COVID-19 pandemic. Please be advised that "Interim Guidance for Immunization Services During the COVID-19 Pandemic" has been issued to local healthcare providers to plan for the safe vaccine administration during the COVID-19 pandemic. This guidance is available here and will be updated as the COVID-19 pandemic evolves.
