You can now submit requests for the new 2024-2025 UUAV COVID-19 products. You can submit a request in MIIC by clicking “request special event vaccine” and selecting the event titled “2024-25 UUAV COVID-19 Vaccines.”
Visit our MIIC Provider User Guide: Special Event Vaccine Request (PDF) for more information.
We anticipate UUAV supply to be very limited until early Fall because of the abrupt end of the Bridge Access Program. CDC has announced they will be offering a limited amount of additional funding for uninsured and underinsured adult COVID vaccine this season, but this funding may not be available to us until late September or early October.
The event will open for initial requests Thursday, Aug. 29 through Tuesday, Sept. 10. Please submit a request that reflects the total number of doses you would expect to need for the season. If you need more doses than your initial request, you will be able to submit additional requests after Sept. 10.
Things to keep in mind when placing requests:
- Be conservative in your orders to preserve our limited budget.
- We may not be able to fill all orders in their entirety.
- When planning events, keep in mind that UUAV supply will likely be limited until late September to early October.
- You may receive your request in multiple shipments to ensure equitable access early in the season.
- We will fill orders for UUAV COVID until the supplemental funding is gone. Once the funding is gone, you will need to use your UUAV allocation if you would like to request additional UUAV COVID doses. We will communicate as we approach this transition.
- We will send your UUAV allocations from Oct. 1 to Sept. 30, 2025, soon, so you can better plan for the season.
The CDC: Interim Clinical Considerations for Use of COVID-19 Vaccines was updated on Aug. 23. MDH’s 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine protocol templates can be found at Vaccine Protocols. The Minnesota COVID-19 vaccine guide will be available on our COVID-19 Vaccine Providers webpage shortly.
Thank you for your partnership as we navigate this changing landscape.
