COVID-19 shots can now be administered at the same time as other shots, or anytime before or after them. The agency previously recommended COVID vaccines be given at least 28 days before and 14 days after other shots. “We now have much more experience with COVID-19 vaccines,” said NACI chair Shelley Deeks. Studies looking at the simultaneous administration of COVID-19 vaccines with other vaccines are underway. Like with other vaccines, when possible, administration on the same day is preferred to vaccines being given within a few days of each other.
