Subject: [MCOH-EH] Flu Vaccine for Next Year
After a brief online search, it appears that neither the CDC nor APIC are recommending the quadrivalent flu vaccine over the trivalent vaccine for adults for the coming year. I saw no recommendation specific to HCWs. I did read that about
50% of the doses to be produced for next year will be quadrivalent.
I’m wondering what people are planning to order for next year.
□ Trivalent?
X Quadrivalent?
□ Fluzone High Dose for those over 65??
