Quick Glance: Why Older Adults Require an Additional COVID-19 Vaccine
- According to new guidance from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), older adults should receive the COVID-19 vaccine more frequently than previously recommended. Individuals aged 65 and older are urged to get another vaccine dose in the spring or at least four months after their last dose.
