[MCOH-EH] Accepting COVID vaccinations not FDA approved for international workers?

[Winters, Tom (BIDMC - Occupational Health)]

We accept 10 WHO vaccines in Boston academic facilities. Plenty of mix and match if no completed vaccines. See slide 21.

Similar to all the other responses so far, we have been accepting vaccines that are on the WHO EUL as long as there is valid documentation in English (or translated to English) that identifies the employee and the vaccines are given on a scheduled that has been approved for that particular vaccine.

Happy new year All,

Does anyone have experience and an approach to whether you accept COVID vaccine series for international workers coming into the US who have received non-FDA approved vaccine brands?

Thank you,
Craig D. Thorne, M.D.
