We recently announced that the HHS Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response (ASPR) has JYNNEOS vaccine available for HRSA-supported health centers. ASPR established a deadline for orders: 2:00 p.m. ET THIS Friday (September 27).
See our September 6 bulletin for how to order, including what information you need to include.
This deadline will ensure doses are delivered with sufficient time for you to administer the first dose by Thursday, October 3. Recipients who receive their first dose that day (October 3) should receive their second dose on the last day the vaccine will be good (Thursday, October 31). This aligns with the manufacturer’s recommendation of administering doses 28 days apart.
