The CDC has provided a lot of guidance surrounding COVID-19 vaccine boosters and there are several vaccine manufacturers of these vaccines. How do we make sense of this information to ensure patients receive appropriate, evidence-based protection? This podcast will describe supplementary guidance for mixing and matching COVID-19 vaccine boosters by evaluating the literature and also reviewing current CDC recommendations.
