RSV vaccine for pregnant people

Eligible patients (people who are 32 through 36 weeks pregnant) may walk-in to TBHC’s Outpatient Pharmacy to receive your RSV vaccine at any time during regular business hours (M-F 9a-7:30p; Sat & Sun 10a-3p). No appointment is required.

Or call 718-250-RX00 (7900) for more information.

Eligibility for Pregnant People
People who are 32 through 36 weeks pregnant should get one dose of maternal RSV vaccine to protect their babies. Babies born to mothers who get RSV vaccine at least two weeks before delivery will have protection and, in most cases, should not need an RSV immunization later.

RSV Vaccine For Infants and Young Children
Eligible patients (infants younger than 8 months of age who are born during—or who are entering—their first Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) season and some children age 8 through 19 months who are at increased risk for severe RSV disease and entering their second RSV season) may receive RSV antibodies through TBHC’s Children’s Health Center and Pediatric program.

Call 1-833-TBHC-NOW (833-824-2669) for more information.

Eligibility for Infants and Young Children
Infants and young children MUST be existing TBHC patients in order to be eligible to receive the RSV vaccine. TBHC is not able to offer the RSV vaccine to infants or children who are not already enrolled with one of our pediatric providers.
