10-5-23 fall vaccinations

Fall vaccination season is in full swing with health officials urging both an updated COVID-19 shot and flu vaccine for most everyone.  The new COVID-19 shots may be getting a little easier for adults to find amid a messy rollout, as insurers tell the government they’re resolving some barriers.  New this year are vaccines for older adultgs and women in late pregnancy to guard against RSV.  Fond du Lac County Public Health Officer Kim Mueller says COVID-19 doses for children under 12 are still frustratingly scarce although officials say they’ve started shipping.  Fewer Americans got a flu vaccine last year than before the coronavirus pandemic, a discouraging gap that the CDC hopes to reverse.
