2023-2024 COVID Vaccine
1,196,526 people died from COVID-19 in the United States, and 39,607 people died from COVID-19 in Michigan as of August 3, 2024. There were 5,580 deaths and 399,616 cases of COVID-19 in Wayne County, Michigan, as of August 13, 2024. COVID-19 vaccination protects people from serious illness from COVID-19. COVID-19 vaccines are effective at protecting people from getting seriously ill, being hospitalized, and dying. You are best protected from COVID-19 when you stay up to date with the recommended vaccinations. CDC recommends the 2023–2024 updated COVID-19 vaccines—Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, or Novavax—to protect against serious illness from COVID-19. Everyone aged five years and older should get one dose of an updated COVID-19 vaccine to protect against serious illness from COVID-19. Children aged six months to four years may need multiple doses of COVID-19 vaccines to be up to date, including at least one dose of updated COVID-19 vaccine. See the Figure below. People who are up to date have a lower risk of severe illness, hospitalization, and death from COVID-19 than people who are unvaccinated or who have not completed the doses recommended for them by the CDC. Protect yourself and your family from COVID-19. Get the updated COVID-19 vaccine. IPH has 2023-2024 COVID-19 vaccine available at 9053 Woodward Ave, Detroit, Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM.
