U.S. CDC's Vaccine Meeting Day #2 Agenda Posted

While the first day of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) meeting was focused on Respiratory Syncytial Virus vaccines, day #2's agenda focuses on respiratory diseases.

On June 27, 2024, the U.S. CDC's vaccine committee meeting agenda includes presentations on updated COVID-19, influenza vaccine options, and a new pneumococcal vaccine (PCV21).

With the 2024-2025 respiratory season fast approaching in the Northern Hemisphere, the general public can listen to today's clinical discussions and votes at this YouTube link.

The ACIP develops recommendations for U.S. immunizations, including ages when vaccines should be given, number of doses, time between doses, and precautions and contraindications.

If the recommendations are adopted by the CDC Director Mandy K. Cohen, MD, MPH, they will be published in a CDC MMWR.
