CDC: Few Healthcare Workers Got COVID-19 Booster

Just 15.3% of the nearly 8 million healthcare workers in acute care hospitals got the COVID-19 booster during the 2023-2024 season, a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study found.

Rates were lowest among nursing home workers at just 10.5%.

“These two events might have affected vaccination campaigns and on-site access to COVID-19 vaccines in nursing homes,” the CDC wrote in an analysis of the survey data.
