COVID-19 - Data
Resources and Information
Updated COVID-19 Vaccine (Updated October 2, 2025)
The COVID-19 vaccine is approved for use in individuals who are:
- 65 years of age and older, or
- 6 months through 64 years of age with at least one underlying condition that puts them at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19.
Prior to vaccination, an eligible nurse or other health care professionals will speak to you and assess your eligibility based on criteria established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices and in accordance with the FDA’s Approved Spikevax Package Insert (dated 8/2025).
The virus that causes COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, is always changing and protection from COVID-19 vaccines declines over time. Receiving an updated COVID-19 vaccine can restore and enhance protection against the virus variants currently responsible for most infections and hospitalizations in the United States.
Vaccine Safety
Vaccines currently authorized for use in the U.S. are safe and effective. These vaccines have undergone and will continue to undergo the most intensive safety monitoring in U.S. history.
