Older Adults Are at Increased Risk of Severe RSV

RSV can be very serious for older adults and causes hospitalizations and death each year. Vaccines are available to help protect older adults against RSV, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends RSV vaccination for all adults 75 and over and those 60-74 years of age with certain medical conditions. Additionally, most private and public health plans cover RSV vaccines at no cost to the individual.
