There used to be a separate page at www.cdc.gov/covid/hcp/va..., but not it redirects to the "Reporting vaccine adverse events" section of www.cdc.gov/covid/hcp/va...

There's a "special situations" page that also got a big re-write and as far as I can tell was not written by lunatics: www.cdc.gov/covid/hcp/va...
Clinical Considerations for Special Situations and Populations

The safety considerations page also got a re-write: www.cdc.gov/covid/hcp/va... But at first blush, it all looks ... reasonable?

The CDC has changed some of the language on their contraindications for vaccination page. However, it is not clear to me that there is a substantive difference here: www.cdc.gov/covid/hcp/va...
Contraindications and Precautions
Information on contraindications and precautions and allergy-related precautions.

This page also talks about the Pemivibart (Pemgarda) monoclonal antibody used for pre-exposure prophylaxis in people who are moderately or severely immunocompromised.

Also: "People can self-attest to their moderately or severely immunocompromised status during the individual-based decision-making process and receive COVID-19 vaccine doses wherever vaccines are offered. Vaccinators should not deny COVID-19 vaccination to a person due to lack of documentation."
November 4, 2025 at 11:03 PM
As was the health care providers page for immunocompromised people: www.cdc.gov/covid/hcp/va...
COVID-19 Vaccination Guidance for People Who Are Immunocompromised
Find definition of people who are immunocompromised and COVID-19 vaccine schedules.

November 4, 2025 at 11:00 PM
Likewise the routine guidance page for health care professionals was updated for 2025-2026: www.cdc.gov/covid/hcp/va...
2025–2026 COVID-19 Vaccination Guidance

tidbit: "People can self-attest to factors that increase their risk for severe COVID-19 during the individual-based decision-making process and receive COVID-19 vaccine doses wherever vaccines are offered. Vaccinators should not deny COVID-19 vaccination to a person due to lack of documentation."

The CDC made the same change to the public health version of this page too.
October 30, 2025 at 5:01 PM
The CDC also added links to the "easy read" version of the child and adolescent immunization pages to this page. The easy read schedules are www.cdc.gov/vaccines/imz... and www.cdc.gov/vaccines/imz....
