Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines provide protection against COVID-19. COVID-19 is the disease caused by infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. There are multiple COVID-19 vaccines currently in use worldwide (see the UNICEF COVID-19 Vaccine Market Dashboard and WHO Coronavirus [COVID-19] Dashboard). This topic includes only those vaccines currently in use in the United States.
In the United States, the updated 2023–2024 formulation of the following COVID-19 vaccines are in use:
SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19) mRNA vaccine produced by Pfizer-BioNTech recommended for people 6 months and older
SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19) mRNA vaccine produced by Moderna recommended for people 6 months and older
SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19) recombinant spike protein nanoparticle vaccine produced by Novavax recommended for people 12 years of age and older
The SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19) adenovirus vector vaccine produced by Janssen/Johnson & Johnson is no longer available in the United States.
The best way to prevent infection, severe illness, and death from COVID-19 is to be up to date with COVID-19 vaccinations. Unvaccinated people are more likely to die of COVID-19 than vaccinated people.
For more information, see the CDC: Interim Clinical Considerations for Use of COVID-19 Vaccines in the United States, COVID-19 Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices Vaccine Recommendations, the FDA prescribing information for the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines, and the FDA fact sheets for Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, and Novavax.
(See also Overview of Immunization.)
