Covid-19 cases are currently increasing in what experts describe as a summer wave. There is an expectation that a winter wave will follow in a few months. The management of Covid-19 remains a priority, with a focus on vaccination efforts to curb the virus’s spread.
Pharmacists in several states require specific recommendations to administer Covid-19 shots effectively. This often ties to guidelines from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP).
In the spring, the federal system initiated efforts to prepare updated Covid-19 vaccinations for the fall season. An advisory committee from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) took an essential first step in this process by selecting the latest virus strains to target in the new vaccines. These recommendations were approved by the agency and relayed to vaccine manufacturers for development.
