2025-2026 COVID-19 VACCINE
The updated COVID-19 vaccine targets currently circulating variants that may cause illness, hospitalization and death. The New York State Department of Health and the New York City Health Department are issuing COVID-19 immunization recommendations in preparation for the 2025-2026 respiratory virus season and in recognizing that vaccination against COVID-19 remains the most effective defense to prevent severe COVID-19 disease outcomes.
Vaccination against COVID-19 is recommended for all adults (greater than 18 years of age)
*All adults 65 years of age and older should be vaccinated
*Adults 19-64 years with risk factors for severe COVID-19 disease (chronic conditions, immunocompromised status) should be vaccinated
*Adults 19-64 years of age at higher risk of exposure (healthcare workers, congregate care settings) should be vaccinated
*Adults 19-64 years of age who are household contacts of persons at high risk of severe disease should be vaccinated
*For adults without underlying conditions, vaccination remains recommended as it reduces the risk of symptomatic infection, severe illness and death.
