Health centers may now pre-order bivalent COVID-19 boosters:
- Pfizer-BioNTech booster for patients ages 12 and older.
- Moderna booster for patients ages 18 and older.
The timeline for pre-ordering through the Health Center COVID-19 Vaccine Program is below.* For health centers ordering from their state or jurisdiction, timing will vary. Contact your state/jurisdiction for more information.
As both products are pending FDA authorization and CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommendation, we encourage health centers to place pre-orders at this time. This will ensure availability of either/both vaccines immediately if the appropriate approvals and guidance are issued.
The CDC Fall Vaccination Operational Planning Guide – Information for the Fall Vaccine Campaign, Including Upcoming Bivalent COVID-19 Vaccine Booster Doses includes more detailed information about these products. If this guide is updated, CDC will post it on its COVID-19 Vaccination Program Operational Guidance webpage.
*If your health center has not yet participated in the Health Center COVID-19 Vaccine Program, or wants to renew participation and is not sure how to do that, use the BPHC Contact Form to let us know. Under the COVID-19 section click "View More" to select the "COVID-19 Vaccine Program" option.
