The federal process for approving and recommending seasonal respiratory vaccines deviated from the typical schedule this year. That led to confusion about who is eligible for Covid vaccines and delayed shipping and distribution of the shots.

They also discuss what they learned from the health department’s recent countywide vaccine access and barrier report.
