The End of the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency
On May 11, 2023, the public health emergency declarations ended. What does this mean to you? Here’s what major health policies will and won’t change:
Vaccines
What’s changing?
Nothing. The availability, access, and costs of COVID-19 vaccines, including
boosters, are determined by the supply of federally purchased vaccines, not
the public health emergency.
What’s the same:
As long as federally purchased vaccines last, COVID-19 vaccines will remain free to all people, regardless of insurance coverage.
