This fall’s Covid-19 vaccine rollout is more confusing than ever. The FDA has narrowed eligibility to older adults and people with high-risk conditions, while major medical societies are urging broader access — and insurance companies are waiting for new guidance from ACIP, the advisory committee that’s been reshaped by RFK Jr.

In this episode of The Health Advocates, host Steven Newmark explains who qualifies as high-risk, what “off-label” vaccination means, how coverage is likely to work, and what parents, pregnant people, and adults should know heading into the fall season.
