All currently approved or authorized COVID-19 vaccines are safe, effective, and reduce your risk of severe illness. Vaccination can reduce the spread of disease, which helps protect those who get vaccinated and the people around them.
Insurance companies in the state are required to cover vaccines recommended by Massachusetts health officials — including COVID, flu, RSV, and routine childhood vaccines — regardless of federal changes.
Due to Massachusetts state policy, pharmacies like CVS and Walgreens will continue offering COVID-19 vaccines to residents age 5 and older.
People should wait at least eight weeks since their last COVID-19 dose and people who recently had COVID-19 may delay getting a COVID-19 vaccine for three months.
