Boost Up Cook County
Get vaccinated
Cook County public health officials are encouraging everyone to “Boost Up” even if you are “boosted out.” Stay up-to-date on all CDC-recommended immunizations, including seasonal vaccines for COVID , flu and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) , if eligible.
Everyone 6 months and older should get an updated COVID-19 vaccine and a flu vaccine. The RSV vaccine can be given at the same time and is recommended for all adults 65 and older.
Routine vaccinations help prevent:
- Severe illness, hospitalization, and death
- Missing out on social gatherings with friends and family
- Missing out on school and extracurricular activities
- Spreading diseases to children and others who aren’t vaccinated because of age or underlying medical conditions
Find out if you and your family members are up to date on all recommended vaccinations
Contact your healthcare provider and schedule an appointment to find out what vaccines you and your family need. Before your appointment, check CDC-recommended vaccination schedules by age:
- 0-6 years old (parent-friendly version)
- 7-18 years old (parent-friendly version)
- 19 years and older (adults)
- CDC adult vaccine assessment tool (ages 19 years and older) – Take this quiz for a list of vaccines to discuss with your doctor or health care professional.
