Start planning your 2024 vaccine schedule

By Haley Weiss Health Reporter

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has unveiled its finalized 2024 vaccination schedules for children and adults, which include a few new shots. Among the recommendations: the latest COVID-19 vaccine, which is essential given the surge in cases nationwide.

Here are some of the other CDC-recommended vaccines.

Abrysvo and Arexvy: These new vaccines, manufactured by Pfizer and GlaxoSmithKline respectively, can protect certain at-risk patients from respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). Both are approved for people over 60; for expectant mothers, Abrysvo can prevent RSV infection in newborns if administered to expectant mothers at the end of pregnancy. Penbraya: This Pfizer vaccine protects against the five variations of meningococcal disease that most commonly affect adolescents and young adults. The CDC has recommended it as a better alternative to the current two-shot regimen typically given to people ages 10 and older. Jynneos: While the mpox vaccine isn’t necessarily new, this is the first year the CDC has included it on the recommended schedule for adults.
