[MCOH-EH] Quadrivalent flu vaccine vs. trivalent for employees?

[Swift, Melanie]

Per our pharmacy supply experts, the manufacturers do plan to phase out production of the standard dose trivalent product over time. If you have not switched to quadrivalent for your standard dose preparation, supply issues will be increasingly problematic.

Everyone, are you aware of any evolving guidance on this topic?

There have also been some preliminary concerns about the availability of trivalent vaccines in the marketplace.

Any guidance would be most appreciated!
