With the holidays quickly approaching, please be mindful of shipping delays, limited or no shipping days, and plan your adult COVID-19 and flu vaccine orders accordingly. December 6th is the latest date you can submit a vaccine order to receive the delivery before January. Please ensure your accountability reports are up to date prior to placing orders to ensure expedited processing. It's also a good idea to update your shipping hours in your provider agreement, if needed. Check out the holiday shipping calendar on our website for more information.
The 2024 ACIP Recommended Immunization Schedules were posted online on November 16, 2023. As a reminder, the schedules summarize final recommendations that were previously adopted and made official by the CDC director. Therefore, these schedules are effective immediately.

Schedule Changes and Guidance
Schedule changes are reflected in CDC’s healthcare provider web content.
The new schedules include October 2023 recommendations for use of Mpox and pentavalent meningococcal vaccine and updated recommendations for the following vaccines:
Beginning on December 1st, 2023, providers enrolled in the Adult Vaccine Program will be required to submit temperature logs through a portal in REDCap, similar to how temperature logs were submitted for the COVID-19 Vaccine Program. Providers that are dually enrolled in both the Childhood Vaccine Program and Adult Vaccine Program will also be required to submit temperature logs for both programs through the REDCap portal. The primary and back up vaccine coordinator at each location will receive an automated email on December 1st that will prompt you to upload your temperature logs for the prior calendar month of November. The link you will receive will not change and can be forwarded to other staff in your facility if needed, or bookmarked for use each month for your temperature log submissions. No login information is required.
This month's training session on Navigating Temperature Log Submission in REDCap was recorded, and posted for your review. Video PDF
