  • Accoding to the Mecklenburg County Health Department it is:

    Pregnant women, healthy children ages 6 months to 4 years old, children 5 through 18 with chronic medical conditions, and caregivers of children under 6 months.

  • It might depend on the county. I was told pg woman, healthy children 6 mo. to 2 yr old, and caregivers of children under 6 mo. old.

  • I think it's varying based on who's giving the shot - DH got one w/ me today (at a clinic put on by his employer) and I guess they were anticipating him becoming a caregiver of a child under 6 mo in 2 mo. I thought it was odd that they offered it to him, but was SO GLAD at the same time.

     

  • Jeffers and Mann is under 2 to qualify.

    ditto this, except we were told 5-24 with chronic medical conditions...and is per CDC guidelines.  "chronic medical conditions" include asthma, COPD, diabetes, heart disease, cancer....I think that's all of them.
