Researchers have presented guidelines for vaccination against respiratory illness in individuals with cardiovascular disease, as published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
The guidelines, issued by the American College of Cardiology, provide recommendations for vaccination against influenza, pneumococcal disease, COVID-19, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and zoster.
- Influenza vaccination is recommended annually for individuals aged 6 months or older to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
- Nasal vaccine is not recommended for patients older than 50 years.
