The MSU Health Care Pharmacy offers the Comirnaty (Pfizer) version of the Covid-19 vaccine.

This vaccine is only available for patients 12 years and older

The pediatric and adult immunization schedules of FDA-approved COVID-19 vaccines should be updated as follows:

• Adults 65 and older: Vaccination based on individual-based decision making.
• Individuals 6 months to 64 years: Vaccination based on individual-based decision-making – with an emphasis that the risk-benefit of vaccination is most favorable for individuals who are at an increased risk for severe COVID-19 disease and lowest for individuals who are not at an increased risk, according to the CDC list of COVID-19 risk factors. (Passed 12-0)
• It is the sense of the committee that state and local jurisdictions should require a prescription for the administration of a COVID-19 vaccine. (Failed 6-6)

It is the sense of the committee that in conversations with patients before COVID-19 vaccination, authorized health care providers discuss the risks and benefits of the vaccination for the individual patient. The discussion should consider known risk factors for severe outcomes from COVID-19, such as age, prior infections, immunosupression and certain comorbidities identified by the CDC, and include a discussion of the potential benefits and risks of vaccination and related uncertainties, especially those outlined in the vaccine information statement, as part of informed consent.
