ERRATUM


 

The September 2018 Practice Alert, “CDC recommendations for the 2018-2019 influenza season” contained an error (J Fam Pract. 2018. 67:550-553). On page 552, under “Available vaccine products,” the article listed “one standard dose IIV4 intradermal option.” This was incorrect. Sanofi Pasteur, the manufacturer of standard dose Intradermal IIV4, discontinued the production and supply of Fluzone Intradermal Quadrivalent vaccine at the conclusion of the 2017-2018 influenza season.
