I am a provider. What should I do with persons aged 11-12 years for whom vaccination was recommended prior to the shortage?
Vaccination of persons 11-12 years of age should be deferred until more vaccine is available. If possible, providers are encouraged to keep track of the children whom did not receive MCV4 and recall those persons when MCV4 becomes available. Those who are unable to be reached should receive MCV4 upon high school entry.
