About the Updated Formula of COMIRNATY
An updated formula of COMIRNATY is designed to help protect against more recently circulating strains that cause COVID-19.
Updated formulas of COMIRNATY are made using the same process as previous formulas, with the difference only in the mRNA, which encodes the viral spike protein.
How COMIRNATY Works
COMIRNATY helps train your immune system.
After vaccination, it works to teach the body to recognize and help fight the virus that causes COVID-19 without you ever having been exposed to it.
COMIRNATY does not contain SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. COMIRNATY cannot give you COVID-19.

Vaccines for Children Program
If you do not have insurance or are enrolled in Medicaid, the Vaccines for Children (VFC) Program may be able to help. The VFC is a government-funded program that provides vaccines at no cost to children 18 years of age and younger who might not otherwise be vaccinated because they are not able to pay. The vaccines are given for free, but there might be other costs, such as payment for the visit or other services.
