Individuals with risk factors for severe illness with COVID-19, such as older age or those with underlying health conditions, may benefit from COVID-19 antiviral medications. Contact your healthcare provider to discuss whether an antiviral medication is best for you.

Reminder: Please do not attend your COVID-19 vaccine appointment if you are currently experiencing any symptoms of illness or are awaiting test results.

Vaccine Guidance

• If you are moderately or severely immunocompromised (have a weakened immune system), you are at increased risk of severe COVID-19 illness and death. Additionally, your immune response to COVID-19 vaccination may not be as strong as in people who are not immunocompromised.
• As with vaccines for other diseases, you are protected best when you stay up to date with your COVID-19 vaccines for your age group:
  • Children and teens aged 6 months–17 years
  • Adults aged 18 years and older
• Speak with your healthcare provider about your medical condition and recommended COVID-19 vaccination schedule.
• COVID-19 vaccine and booster recommendations may be updated as CDC monitors the latest COVID-19 data.
• For more information, visit the CDC Website: COVID-19 Vaccines for People who are Moderately or Severely Immunocompromised
